Dry and Complex Crash Sound – MEINL 16″ Byzance Dual Crash Cymbal
The MEINL 16″ Byzance Dual Crash Cymbal produces a dry and dark tone. It delivers a trashy character with reduced overtones. As a result, it suits modern and expressive playing styles.
Dual Finish for Tonal Contrast
This cymbal combines raw and brilliant surfaces. In addition, this contrast comes from a mix of hammering and lathing. Therefore, it creates a unique balance between dryness and shimmer.
Fast Response with Short Decay

Two Playing Zones for Versatility
The surface offers two distinct playing areas. You can crash for explosive accents or ride for controlled articulation. As a result, it adds versatility to your setup.
