Meinl HCS 8" Micro Stack Hats – HCS8H
The Meinl HCS8H Micro Stack Hats are a fresh, specialized addition to the HCS lineup, designed for drummers who want to integrate sharp, high-pitched auxiliary sounds into their setup. These 8-inch cymbals function as ultra-compact hihats that offer a trashy, stack-like response, making them perfect for quick-fire accents and modern electronic or gospel-style beats. As a new product release, they bring a contemporary edge to the HCS series, proving that you don't need a massive footprint to make a massive impact on your groove.
Key Features
- New Micro Stack Design: Engineered as specialized Micro Stack Hats to provide the aggressive, short-decay "bark" of a stack with the control of a hihat.
- High-Pitch Cutting Power: The diminutive 8-inch size ensures a piercing frequency that cuts through guitars and vocals without overpowering the mix.
- MS63 Brass Alloy: Constructed from durable, harmonic brass to ensure a consistent sound that stands up to heavy hitting while remaining budget-friendly.
- Dynamic Auxiliary Option: Ideally suited as a secondary hihat or effects pair, giving you a distinct "electronic" sound in an acoustic format.
- Rapid Response: Features an immediate attack and instant decay, allowing for intricate, syncopated sticking patterns that stay crystal clear.
