Frequently Asked Questions

The Sound Edge design offers a more defined 'chick' and a slightly more open sound compared to the standard 900s, making them a bit more versatile.
The black finish is a coating, so it's not as permanent as a raw cymbal. Expect some wear and patina development over time, especially with aggressive playing.
While they're versatile, the medium weight and B8 bronze make them better suited for mid-level volume and intensity; heavier hitters might find them lacking projection.
