Nice set of cymbals for the price
I used to play with low end Zildijan's and wanted to upgrade for a better set since they are also used in my studio for recording.
I mainly play death metal and it has been difficult to find good sounding cymbals that cut throught the harsh guitar tone. This set of cymbals is great for that purpose since they are medium-thin and quite bright sounding. They work great in playing live and also sound very rich on recording. The hi-hat sounds pretty big and not that crispy compared to Paiste's for example. The crash cymbals are my favourite of the set. Unfortunately I was not completely satisfied with the included ride cymbal. The bell is rather quiet and the overall sound is everything you excpect from a ride, nothing special about it. One time I was experimenting with it and it turns out that the included ride works great as a crash cymbal if pared with the 18" crash.
I would recommend it for playing metal and rock music. The hi-hat could work for jazz also.
