Frequently Asked Questions
The Paistes generally have a slightly more refined and complex sound, but the Zildjian S series are often a bit louder and more aggressive.
They're perfectly acceptable for studio use, but might require some EQ to add warmth or body depending on the desired sound.
While durable, the lighter weight means they won’t handle the abuse of a full-on metal drummer as well as a heavier hi-hat.
