Their Medium Heavy crashes are much better suited to, well, music than the Zildjian Zs, which have similar sonic qualities to filing cabinets. But for recording they're likely too heavy.I think Meinl Cymbals are really great for their price point. I use assorted Paiste Cymbals, I bought my kit from craigslist and it came with PST5's, but there is a band that practices at my house that uses 2002's, so sometimes I use those for my hats and crash cymbal. For some reason I do actually really like the sound of the PST5 ride. The rest is garbage. Meinl cymbals are really durable, sound great, and come with a good warranty. There is a band my hardcore punk band gigs with pretty regularly and we share drum equipment sometimes at shows so we don't have to worry about tearing down, he uses the MB10's and from the times I have played them I really liked them, especially the hats. evanrowe wrote:I think those packs are designed to make kids give up drumming and go to business school.Yeah, I used an 18 ZBT crash for a bit and it was a total piece of shit. sounds like a cut down garbage can lid or something.
