Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: MY OPINION ON SOUND: A little brighter in tap than a K Custom Flat and nowhere near as low pitched/dark on the crash.. but otherwise pretty similar ("screen door" style sound, as opposed to the "steel/stone table" sound of an A flat... this one is almost like if you took a K Custom Flat and a 602 medium flat and put them together at the midway point)

Review written by E's Cymbal Studio

Review: "They sent along a pair of 'Flat top' Ks, also 20" and 22" diameter. Of course the overtone of these cymbals is minimal since they don't have a bell. The smaller one had, for me, a more silvery sound while the other had a somehow flatter tone with its middle frequencies more predominant."
