Frequently Asked Questions

The 900 series uses a more affordable bronze alloy, so it lacks the complexity and sustain of the Signature or R lines, but still delivers a great, consistent sound.
The color is purely cosmetic – it's applied to the surface and doesn’t impact the cymbal’s sonic qualities. It’s a visual aesthetic choice.
While versatile, their heavier weight and brighter tone make them less ideal for very quiet or nuanced jazz playing; lighter hi-hats are generally preferred for those styles.
