Dark and dreamy

Rippou 24.04.2017

The only downside of this cymbal I have experienced so far is that it makes my other cymbals sound rather bland and without a character.

It has a dry definition and the depth of the overtones are great. You can get a lot of different sounds using dynamics at various spots and it can provide a mellow underlying tone with lots of wash as well as cutting through with high definition attack.

The 22'' Medium lettering on it was smudged halfway, but it's a minor detail and the rest of the craftsmanship is top notch. It's a dreamy cymbal and I can highly recommend it in all aspects.

Great sounding, reminisced of the past K cons.

Tony Welldone 05.08.2024

Sound great for Rock, pop and similar situations, but for me it lacked the jazziness I have heard from the earlier iterations of this cymbal. Unfortunately sold it cause it was too stiff and pangy for my taste.
But being said that, beats the hell out of similar sized cheaper ones, in terms of sound, projection and brilliance of a main ride…

Extrem vielseitiges Topbecken

Steve Jordan aus dem Norden 28.04.2021

Habe in Treppendorf ein wunderschönes Exemplar gefunden und bin extrem zufrieden! Das Becken hat sich für Pop, Rock, Soul und Bigband – life und im Studio – perfekt bewährt. Hat aus meiner Sicht genau das richtige Verhältnis von obertonreichem, präzisen Anschlag, Komplexität und Grundrauschen. Ist mittellaut, aber als Ride eher leicht zu kontrollieren, gerade wegen der relativ hohen Masse. Die Glocke ist eher klein – für mich gerade noch ausreichend – für richtige Rocker sicherlich zu klein / zu integriert.
Für Combojazz hat es natürlich zu viel Masse, aber auch da kommt man (als reines Ridebecken) im Zweifel klar.
Ich muss nur warnen: aus meiner Erfahrung sind die hochwertige Zildjian alles Einzelstücke – jedes ist also anders...

Très bien

jean-Michel5109 19.12.2015

Plus de 30 ans de pratique, j'en ai vu passer quelques unes et j'ai fini par craquer sur toute la série des crash plus le dernier charlé en 13 de France (toutes fantastique). Cette ride est pas mal mais je la trouve moins bien que ma vieille zildjan qui a plus de 30 ans (je ne sais même pas quel modèle c'est). Un son un peu rêche, moins brillant, moins précis. J'aurai mieux fait de tester les autres modèles en magasin. Par contre les crash, vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés.
