    Made from Sabian's B8 bronze alloy for bright and tonally focused response ideal for many styles of music.

    This pack includes five Sabian B8 cymbals, which include: a pair of 14" hi-hats, a 16" thin crash, a 20" ride, and a free 18" thin crash. The B8 hi-hats have a crisp and lively stick and pedal response and are very bright and definite, clean, and penetrating. The B8 thin crash provides a full, penetrating response that is bright and loud, exploding with an upward pitch gain for maximum impact. The B8 ride has crisp stick definition, a cutting bell, and bright tonal response blend to create a smooth, versatile ride.

    Bronze is the ultimate cymbal metal. The world-leading budget-priced cymbal, Sabian B8s set the standard for quality in cymbals. They're designed and priced for the entry-level and student player. Fully hammered and totally lathed to capture the bright, focused, and penetrating sounds of more expensive cymbals, B8 delivers the sound and value of Sabian bronze quality at the lowest possible prices.

    These cymbals are amazing! I've had them for over two years now (Which is how long I've been a drummer) and they're still going! Granted , the cymbals are starting to shpow their wear and tear (my 16" has a crack in it), but other than some stick b;lemishes appearing on the surface these cymbals are awesome!
    Good quality, good sound, good value, and good all around product!

    I bought this cymbal pack a little over a month ago, when i got them, I instantly recognized sabian quality. Please keep in mind that they are thin crashes, so don't abuse them, they don't need to be hit hard. They should last years if you hit them right, I've had to adjust but It will be worth it. I only have 1 straight stand and a hihat stand right now, but im getting 2 boom stands soon. I'll break the review into 4 parts - 16" Thin Crash, 18" Thin Crash, 20" Medium Ride, and 14" Hats.

     

    16" Thin Crash: 9/10. This is my favorite crash in the pack, very bright and sounds fantastic, it is moderately touchy, you don't need to hit it too hard to get the maximum effect from it.

     

    18" Thin Crash: 6/10. This is my least favorite cymbal in the pack. It sounds too dark for my likings, much more like a crash/ride than a crash. It still sounds and feels OK and at least it was free. This one is also touchy, don't abuse it.

     

    20" Ride: 10/10. I love this cymbal. so much better than the ZBT, it's very bright, very loud, its bell sounds fantastic, and it has a long overtone which I like. I highly recommend this ride. dont be afraid to crash it, it's very sturdy and well built. Don't expect it to sound like an AAX based off this review, it sounds amazing, for its price. 20" aax stage ride is still my favorite

     

    14" Hats: 9.5/10. These Hats are very crisp and clean. The chk sounds great and the hats are nice and loud. It sounds pretty good sizzling, but not great.

     

    Overall: 9/10. I'm not going to lie. B8's are SO much better than ZBT's.  a great, long lasting, entry/intermediate level cymbal pack. If you're tight on cash, and need some decent cymbals, these are the way to go. If you have a few extra hundred bucks though, i'd definitely check out the Sabian AAX's, those are my favorites

    i love these so much its crazy. everybody i play with falls in love with the 14 inch crash. the only problem is that i play ever day at leaast an hour so they do get worn. the 16 inch crash cracked after 7 months but still a great cymbal. i loved it so much i cut it and continued to play it. the ride rings a little long but its alright

    Just set these things up today.  One thing I noticed is they aren't are bronze not gold, but they match the cymbals I was going to get rid of so now I can keep them.  I played on them for about an hour, love em.  Sound is great, they are beautiful, and they are very heavy duty, not cheap at all. I love them.
