zidjian is so dark it makes your skin craw and makes your back shiver in person no other china i have ever wacked does that to me for how cheep zildjian makes zxt and even zbts you will never ever go wrong
@maurerdrums Depends really on the sound you're looking for. I'm not too fussed about brand name, I look for two things in a cymbal. A unique sound that compliment my kit, and the ability to withstand a little bit of a beating. That said, I'd not come across many cymbals that shatter, so my last point is a little redundant. I just don't want everything on my kit to sound the same.
Definitely the sabian! All the other ones are just way too pitchy on the high end. Sabian has a lil lower end, more like a Crashy trashy washy all in one definitely the sabian ! Check out the holy china! They sound amazing! I have the 21" I will not trade it for anything!
@ausdrummer11 i agree that they are great budget cymbals but if you get a good sounding one by going to Guitar Center or something, you can find a amazing sounding one. sometimes better than the higher brand cymbals.
Sabian and paiste win big time!!!
That first Sabian is sick!!
That PST5 China sounds kinda like a Paiste RUDE 18" Novo China. Haha i love it :D
Thank you!!! Going with the Meinl!

Zildjian zxt sounds sooo sexy but so does the others I wouldn't mind using all of them on my kit for different tones/sounds
Sabian and zildjian sounded the best!!!

Meinl & Paiste!!!
Meinl great sound!
Go for the Paiste. I have the 18" PST. After nearly 3 years it still sounds great, trust me
I have the zildjian zxt, & is a very nice cymbal!!!

The Meinl sounds the best in this demo by far...
The Zildjian sounded mad. Its the exact cymbal im after too :)
Nice comparison

zildjian 😊😱
This time, I would say Sabian or Zildjian, but they all are good, depends on personal tastes... I wish I had the 4 of them.
I have a Zildjian Zxt China, it's good, just doesn't sound like the one in the video. I liked Sabians alot too.
