| I too favor Zildjians. The thing to remember about them is that no two are alike- Don't go by weight or diameter- you really have to hit them (in the store and hopefully at home) to know what they sound like.
For example, when I had to replace a 16" medium crash that had cracked, I ended up with an 18" crash/ride- it just sounded more like my old cymbal than any of the 16s in the store |
