Brass cymbals are not known for great sound,typically,compared even to sheet B8 bronze,but Sabian’s cymbal making expertise and quality brass alloy and manufacturing processes produce a surprisingly good sounding and musical cymbal.These cymbals are far above the generic brass cymbals included with most inexpensive drum sets.They look great also with their lathed and hammered surfaces and finishing.The cymbals are also sturdy with some weight to them,unlike the aforementioned generics which are very flimsy and lifeless sounding.I especially like the SBR hi hats,with their focused and defined sound and tight “chick”.
