I have the Sabians. Since they are pretty much just for practicing, I opted for the stainless steel since it will last a lot longer. Pretty happy with them, and am planning on getting more of them for my set. I think you summed up the differences well; I feel like the Zildjians sound a little tastier, but the Sabians meet my needs better.

I'd like an even more weathering on the finish. That's just my preference. Good vid

Which one of the two brands fits better with the RTom Black Hole pads?

[@dxzxax8772]

Sounds like Zildjian L80s are quieter than the Sabians. Both RTOM Black Holes and L80s are advertised to lower the sound by 80%, not sure about the Sabian's percent.

[@dxzxax8772]

Just watched another comparison video the Sabian QuietTone's had 87-90 decibels and the Zildjian L80s had, wait for it, 80 decibels. If it helps, I just ordered the L80s and I'm gonna match them with the RTOM Black Hole pads.

I should really use ear phones for low cymbal sound

[@johnburkhalter3880]

Sabian are far more durable and not much louder. To reduce some of the harsh overtones you can use moongel. It does wonders on the ride.

I’ve got Zildjian sound decent I think the Sabian sound better

Them silent cymbals suck compared to the normal ones.
