Get Istanbul cymbal any series (jazz ride) they are fantastic 100% hand made and not too expensive. Zildjian you just pay for the "brand" with same machine quality cymbal. Check out my video I tested some Istanbul ride there
just a note, all the cymbals sound totally different viewed in HQ compared to normal. I wouldn't even think twice about the ride in normal mode, but in HQ, it sounds quite nice.
I played some of the Istanbul cymbals live, and I recommend it to anyone before actually choosing and buying them. They are all a bit different (even if they're from the exact same model), and even compared to HQ videos, they all sound richer and better live, in my opinion at least...
