I have always loved Sabian cymbals. Ever since I heard an AA crash alongside a Zildjian A crash, it was no contest. I like the standard "Vault" line of cymbals the best. They were conceived as a culmination of all the most common requests of the finest Sabian artists. I've heard thousands (yes thousands of cymbals-I've been playing for 23 years and I've worked in a big drum shop) and the standard Vault line are the most versatile/musical cymbals I've ever heard/played.
I like a lot of the cymbals that Sabian makes, but my favorites are HHX, HHX Evolution, HHX Legacy and some of the signature stuff (the JoJo Mayer stuff, the Jia China).
I dig the crashes, but I don't really like the Vault ride too much. I have a Vault Artisan ride that's bitchin', but all the standard Vault rides I've tried have really abrasive overtones...how would you describe yours?
I have both the Vault ride and the Artisan. The Vault ride is very bright and pingy, and cuts well. Doesn't crash at all though. I found it's more of an aquired taste, and you either love it or hate it. I love mine, but the Artisan is deffinitely more versatile.
I have the 16" and 19" Crashes and they are incredible.
well I'm sure there are some out there that sound great and some that sound like ass, my experience with that particular model has been in the latter category.
sabian man ther are fucki awsome although the rev from A7x got me into them as he used them and he's my favourite drummer soo u can guess tht i like them and i always will
man sabians awsome :) even their lower classes cymbals are great sounding :) i got the B8 Performance pack for christmas and sabian put in an extra 18' thin crash and i love it and i love sabian :):) best cymbal brand ever!!
