S Series Performer Cymbal Set : If you consider buying this , READ THIS REVIEW

9 years ago

As we all know, this is a B12 alloy cymbal set. A little bit brighter than B20 , similar in power and projection.

THE HATS

To be honest,I was amazed by these hats. I never tried some mastersound hats,so this was new to me. I know it's not a fair comparison,but put next to a pair of AAX Stage Hats,you can see the difference between a regular lip pair of hats and a wavy one.They're loud.Very loud.This doesn't affect the sound quality and crispness , though. Although the AAX tends to have a clearer sound ( well,AAX is top of the line,after all) , these hats won't disappoint you.

THE RIDE

I love it. It's sweet , doesn't wash and the bell is somewhat cutting. Overall, it's a great ride that I'd buy separately if I didn't need the hats and crashes.

THE CRASHES

Ugh,we had to get here,didn't we? Poor effort, zildjian. You could really do something amazing here, but I guess this is how business works. Mediocre crashes. They don't sound wrong , but they're not 'brilliant' for the price , either.

SENTENCE:GOOD PACK

It's worth it.No major compromises here, despite the crashes.
