    I bought this pack a few days ago, and returned it later on. I didn't like the size of the ride, it was too small. Not to mention, its sound wasn't that great. The bell was a bit small too, and I didn't like that. The hi-hats were OK, but they sounded terrible closed, and good open. Very inconsistent cymbals, Not a fan. I'd rather get the PST 5 instead. They're much better, for a little more value.

  • Great cymbals, at a great price!

    I purchased this cymbal pack with my PDP drum set, as a replacement for the stock cymbals it came with. I was a bit skeptical, because they were only $99 (Memorial Day guitar center special), however when I got home and set them up I was blown away. Fantastic tone, great feel, and overall great value cymbals.

  • Awesome cymbal pack

    This is my second set of cymbals. As soon as I put them in my set they were awesome. The hi-hat has incredible sound for cheaper hats. The crash is also very punchy and durable. I have a sabian xs20 that was $100, and these cymbals still sound great with it. These are a great addition to any set!

    I'm slowly building up my set and must say that these are wonderful cymbals. Great tone from both the high hats and cymbal. Ofcourse, I really can't compare them to the other big 2 because this is my first set since I was 12. Anyway, they sound and feel great. Highly recommended, ESPECIALLY for the price.

  • AWESOME!!!

    I got these about a month ago. They are the best sounding cymbals I've heard. They are great cymbals. The Hi-Hats sound great the crash ride is awesome. I wouldn't hit the crash ride too hard because it feels like it'll break. But these cymbals are AWESOME!!!
