New Cymbals...

[Dan6061]

I'm after some new cymbals for my drum kit, as the ones on my kit (CB) are wafer thin and bent, and just sound rubbish.

I want more then what I have already (hi-hats, crash/ride) and I've found these:

Sabian 'Mega' Cymbal set

As they come with stands etc, this would be brilliant.

Are these cymbals any good?

Also, I have a Stagg double-bass pedal on my kit, and the hi-hat stand's not working with it.

I have to have on leg of the stand over the pedal for it to fit, which is awkward.

What stand would be best for it?

I have around £200 to spend

I've got a good idea

Wanna buy my whole blue CB kit, double tama pedal, paiste cymbals, premier boom stand and hi hat stand, evans skins?

Please?

LOL, na Zildrins ( or however the hell you spell it) if you can afford it.

My paiste ones are a pretty good upgrade, ride crash and hi hat off ebay brand new from shop £110

I've got a premier hi hat stand, proper fat for £50 bargin

Those solars are ok, not great but not crap

I'd rather not buy a whole new kit

Does anyone have these cymbals becuase I want to get them (as they have all the stands etc)

I like the Zildjians, the ones on my mates kit sound really nice.

But if these Sabians sound good too...

EDIT: Just bought those cymbals.

Question about the hi-hat stand still need answering

Would one where the legs can rotate round be what i'm after?

Haha, that mega pack is sabian solars, steer clear, they are complete shit.

Im using a set of Sabian AAX cymbals - stage hats, 16" crash and 20" ride, with a Signature crash 18" SATURATION. Boodiful setup, ive also got a few Sabian Pro splashes too.

For £200 your best bet is to get a Sabian XS20 pack - they are pretty good for the cash although if you want the best youll have to pay for it.
