You want great quality B20 bronze cymbals for a good price? Go with Wuhan Traditional Series. I know it's Wuhan but they sound amazing, especially for the price.
sounds like crap, I don't know why somebody would save to get XS20 cymbals, you should save to get high end cymbals, even if you can only afford to buy one at a time, that way you won't waste money on regular cymbals
I've bought this ride secondhand, and it doesn't quite work for me, the bell is not very easy to play, the stickdefenition isn't great and the tones are a bit light for my taste. Crashing this cymbal sounds pretty good though.
Take it from me, the sound for the price is ridiculous. Way more economic and, I will say, more durable and just plain better sound than any Zildjians I've played. I had a zildjian ride and splash for maybe a year and the zildjian ride has almost no cut and the splash is OK. But these just smash zildjian all around. Especially with that price tag for 6 cymbals. 7 if you count the hats as 2.
dis regard the other dudes comment its all personal preferance and with the xs20's its either a hit or miss on the bell they are all like this but half the people dont like them and the other half do.
THAT'S a mid sized bell?? what's a small bell??

@Utheused4
I like it alot better, I use it as a crash/ride. Extremely nice bell ( although a bit small ). Couldn't recommend it enough.

You know what Sabian, get rid of all of your cymbal series and just make bells, because apparently thats all you care about.

The only problem with XS20 cymbals are that they don't cut through, most likely because they aren't hammered.

You shouldn't be trolling around this cymbal.
It's a MEDIUM RIDE, that's why it doesn't sound like a ROCK or a METAL Ride.
Please try to get that into your little heads.
Thanx.
