HHX Chinese my friend...

a cheaper brand, cutting chinese that blends with b8's and xs's

B8 Pro....that china is so awesome.

has anyone heard of istanbul(sp?) cymbals

For a 16" medium or medium thin, darkish crash for prog/modern rock like APC, Porcupine Tree, or VAST which do you think would be best, 16" K medium thin crash, HH medium thin crash, or HHX 16" stage crash? Or something else?

[QUOTE=meizmatt]has anyone heard of istanbul(sp?) cymbals[/QUOTE]

yes, they are well known turkish cymbals. they pro cymbals, but are cheaper than the Zildjian, Sabian, and Paiste. i think they are great!

[QUOTE=meizmatt]has anyone heard of istanbul(sp?) cymbals[/QUOTE]

Great cymbals. I own a 14" Thin Traditional crash, and despite being slightly splashy, gives a great tone.

Cheaper? Try looking at their Sultan series. Their hats go up to $500 a pair.

[QUOTE=bobby__johnny]B8 Pro....that china is so awesome.[/QUOTE]

Haha **** yes, I love that china.

I'm torn between the 16" Sabian HH duo crash and the HHX stage Crash to compliment my 17" Kcustom dark. I haven't heard them with my K custom so I'm not sure of the voulmes. Are they rougly the same? Also Which to you reckon would blend with the K custom better?

of course its going to be splashy because its a thin 14" CRASH. only two inches bigger than the largest splash

This is not always true. I have a 14 in k custom fast crash and for a 14 in and a fast crash, it is not that splashy, it still has a full tone.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a ride that would be suitable for metal (power/thrash), I'm open minded about whether Zildjian/Paiste/Sabian/etc. I'd prefer a loud bell, and it needs to be heard through guitars.

I've been considering: Paiste Rude Power Ride, Zildjian Z Custom Ride, and maybe a Paiste Dimensions Ride of some sort, any comments or advice appreciated, thanks.

thats a very good question. I would like to hear the answer to that

Oh and some hip-hop1!!!

Ok, my teacher has a Paiste 505 20" ride. It sounds fantastic but i cant find one like it anywhere. Did they stop making them? And if you have played one, what are your opinions of it?

[QUOTE=drummer172]How do all you guys like paiste signature hi hats?[/QUOTE]

I think they are incredable... I have the 13'' dark crisp sig hats and next week I am getting the 14'' sound edge sig hats. :naughty:

they are absolutely AWEEEESOMEEEE!!!!!! too bad theyre too expensive for me

they sound nice, but my wallet hates em ;)

third times a charm

OK Cymbalism......., I have a 18" A Custom Crash and a 17" A Custom Projection....

I am about to get some new hats.....considering A Mastersounds, A Custom Mastersounds, K/Z Combo and maybe Dyno Beats.... now which would blend in best with my crashes....?

I would also like to add one more crash...bigger or smaller? heavier or thinner? brighter or darker?

^I'd probably say the A mastersounds^

anyways I've recently heard of the Meinl dragon series and I also heard they are extrea,ly trashy and the crash can work as a crash a ride and a china, and i noe they're discontinued , but if that all is true is there an equivelent to it?

Hey i was wondering how much a 16 inch vault crash aould run around??. And whats a good 20 inch Rock ride around 200 that sounds good in ur opinion??
