Frequently Asked Questions

Pure Alloy focuses on a more direct, fundamental sound; Byzance cymbals have more complex overtones and a wider range of sonic textures.
The traditional finish is beautiful but less resistant to oxidation; regular polishing with a cymbal cleaner will maintain its appearance.
While durable, the medium weight is best suited for players who favor finesse and articulation; heavier hitters might find it lacking in sustain.
