I guess hybrid is the future!

I was waffling between a few sets of cymbals before settling on these. I gave Jozy a call and explained what sound I wanted. He suggested these and they fit the bill nicely. I like my cymbals to be from the same manufacturer just for aesthetics, but I got these K hybrids to go with a couple of Sabians I have, after all, sound is the most important. The ride and hats are the stars of this show. The hats deliver a very crisp sound with great stick definition without being too over whelming when whacking them when open. The ride seems to be two cymbals in one. You can ride on the edge and get a dark wash or a very defined bell. The in-lathed portion gives you definition without too much wash. The 17-inch crash is just a tad darker than my Sabian 18 inch fast crash but it doesn't sustain as long, good or bad is up to you. The only thing that keeps this from being 5 stars is that I would prefer a cymbal set have two crashes instead of one.

A true renaissance cymbal

Highly articulate and expressive cymbals that can effectively alternate between sounding brilliant or dark; when crashed they are incredibly balanced. These would be appropriate (dare I say perfect?) for any genre, from extreme metal to jazz and everything in between. WELL worth the price. If you are between these and sabian omni consider this: do you want cymbals that can do bright/dark or cymbals that can do dry/dryer?

Great cymbals

I purchased these cymbals about a year ago. It was my first purchase from Sweetwater. This purchase went flawless like all my subsequent purchases have gone. Delvin takes good care of me. The cymbals have a brilliant sound on the edge with darker sound on the bells. They are aesthetically pleasing with a shine that glows. I have added a Zildjian Constantinople 18 " crash which pairs with the kit beautifully. No complaints!

Beautiful sound beautiful look

Brilliant on the edge and dark on the bell these cymbals were a great balanced addition to my kit. And their bright shiny appearance is very aesthetically pleasing.
Rated 5/5

Very versatile

3 years ago I bought this setup. I still have all of them. These cymbals are a great combination of K Zildjian with A Custom bells. And that is a great thing. You can work the cymbals between soft to loud but keep sensitivity and some wash if desired while still having some articulation or aggressiveness.

Ask any drummer at Sweetwater, and chances are, we'll tell you that Zildjian represents the gold - or rather bronze - standard in cymbal making. Seriously, Avedis Zildjian may have been trying to make gold, but he did even better when he formulated what's arguably the best cymbal material on the planet. We've played virtually every type of Zildjian cymbal out there, and you won't find anyone at Sweetwater who wouldn't happily recommend their instruments to you, plus their sticks and other accessories are also pretty sweet. Whether you're grabbing your first S or ZBT pack or have saved up for the A or K series cymbals you've always wanted, Sweetwater is your source for all things Zildjian.
