Frequently Asked Questions
The S Family is generally brighter and more direct than the A series, lacking some of the A’s shimmering complexity and wash, but offering a more focused, punchy response.
While it’s a distinct sound, the trash crash is surprisingly versatile – it can add a subtle edge to rock or a more aggressive texture to heavier genres with careful mic placement.
B12 bronze is reasonably durable, but like all cymbals, proper care and avoiding excessive force are crucial to prevent cracking over time.
