i was looking at the AAX 10in splash...What do u guys think about it?

metal sh*t 01-22-2006 05:53 PM

Well im planning on getting a new ride, the stock i have is in pretty bad shape. I was thinking of a, i think, its a 20' Zildjian dark ride.

So if any of you has it can you tell how is it? Sounds?

FL3P 01-22-2006 05:55 PM

You guys all need to go hear the soundclips on the company websites first and compare and then ask anything that you cant get there.

ludvista29 01-22-2006 06:07 PM

I heard the AAX 10in splash in person, i want to know how versitle it is.

AA splashes are more versatile.

ludvista29 01-22-2006 06:58 PM

how much is a 10in of an AA?

mmm,nah, AAX splashes (8" specially) arent as loud and as versatile as an AA, AA's are the only way to go, i'ma a AA bitch, AA for the world, AA for president, it sucks that there is no AA-xcelerator or HH-xcelerator :(:( me sad

Tim 01-22-2006 08:27 PM

If you want a great effects cymbal go for the 13inch b8pro thin crashes. those things are awesome.

Chester 01-23-2006 08:13 AM

haha, it just sounds funny calling a crash an effects cymbal, but thats basically what it would be

ant_182 01-23-2006 10:39 AM

Hey, does anyone know what Zildjians 14" mastersound hats sound like? and if there is anywhere that sells cheapest in UK? And also 21" Sweet Ride (Brilliant)? Thanks in advance

full collapse 01-23-2006 12:19 PM

Out of these which would have the most projection, 14" AAX Stage hats, 14" AAX Fast hats, 14" AA Regular hats, or 14" HH Fusion hats?

aznriceball 01-23-2006 12:21 PM

^definitely the stages, as well as being the brightest. the AAs would be a tiny bit more versatile

i always thought the mastersounds had such a dry chick sound to em and kind of a glassy dry riding to it. the sweet ride is really thin and washy, awesomely crashable :thumb:

ant_182 01-23-2006 12:26 PM

Awesome Thanks. Would you recomend them? Or is there a similar cymbal thats cheaper? Any cheaper dealers in UK?

aznriceball 01-23-2006 12:29 PM

id highly recommend..err..that u go and try em out. at the very least go listen to some zildjian sound clips. and what exactly in sound are you looking for?

as for money, cymbals last forever if taken care of, so if thats an issue, just save. its much more worth it than 'settling' since you're spending a ton of money anyway.

ant_182 01-23-2006 12:39 PM

Yeh, I'm saving up now :) Because I bought some ZXTs, DONT COMPLAIN! it was 2 months after I had been playing and they were AMAZING compared to my crappy "kit cymbals". and i was totally new to drums and the sound then and I only had £200. Now I prefer to test out stuff. I was amazed when i tried oput the ZXTs, becuase they actually lasted some time, like the crash, was a crash....not a beny peice of metal! I've just been on the Zildjian site and I'm happy with the sound. What should i get first, hats or ride? Cheers!!!

Drum Phil 01-23-2006 12:54 PM

Please dont tell me you picked them because barker uses them

ant_182 01-23-2006 12:57 PM

No, if I was after Barkers set up I'd go for the crashes and oriental Trash too. I'm not THAT sad! c'mon, i just want advice, not arguments or opinions on people. this is a cymbal thread!!!

ant_182 01-23-2006 12:58 PM

Actually I may just go for the Barker set up because it would piss people off hee hee :D

Talos 01-23-2006 01:30 PM

What are the best starter cymbals?

Well cheap cymbals, the likes of Solars, 101s, Planet Z, ZBT, B8, 302

full collapse 01-23-2006 01:48 PM

You think paiste 2002 are cheap? If that's the case you can get pretty much anything you want from any cymbal line besides some of the other paiste lines...

Talos 01-23-2006 03:48 PM

chewaz 01-23-2006 04:22 PM

[QUOTE=forgottenDRUMMER]b8.[/QUOTE]

Talos 01-23-2006 04:34 PM

Can a China or Splash sound like a crash?

Drum Phil 01-23-2006 05:01 PM
