Which is better zht or zxt

Or save up a little more money and get the Sabian Xs20 line for a great all around cymbal that won't break the bank.

If you can deal with them being a little "clanky" sounding, then you'll be okay. I keep them for practice cymbals at home. Lennytoons Senior Member. Buy used A's or Sabian AA's. They will last a lifetime and will go with any kind of music. Learn to hit them and you don't need a warranty. DrumEatDrum said:. Lennytoons said:. In jazzier ensemble playing such as you may be doing in school , this is a great technique, and this cymbal handles it just fine.

It also handles blunt force trauma, where you take that 5B and grandly fillet of the edge of the cymbal. The cymbals answers this stroke with a large, low, slightly slow explosion of shimmer. Not bad at all. I was having so much fun playing along to Black Sabbath in headphones testing out these new Zildjians.

Umm … it looks cool. To my ears, it had an attack that was nicely hard and metallic, but too short. The decay, what little there was, lacked any of the spreading sonic gravel that should follow the Oriental bark of a good Chinese cymbal.

Both of you. Do you need a budget splash? But, as a small crash, it works pretty well. I played it in the bedroom for a while, and it was a ton of fun. Prices are more or less firm, trust me, the prices will definately be as reasonable as it can get Cymbals are made in , Sms me at 1. Budget-friendly all-around cymbal box set. ZXT are the perfect budget cymbals. The ZXT hats have a bright attack, full sound and consist of a medium top with heavy bottom. The ZXT 20" ride is a general-purpose ride cymbal with good stick definition and great, high-pitched bell.

The 16" ZXT medium thin crash is a bright, full-bodied crash with excellent projection—a sharp, high-pitched attack with fast decay.
