    Hi Guys,

    Thinking about getting in some new ranges, normally stock the starter stuff but really want to bring some stuff in for players who use the higher ranges.

    Anyone got pro's / con's on their mind ?

    Some of the Paise line sig series cymbals are delicious!

    Can be pricey tho!

    Yeah ?

    I've heard a few of them as was taken aback by how good they sound.

    What kind of prices are they coming in at ?

    bhosphorus user here for crashes - nothing like them

    i hand picked 5 of them from sound files on cymbalsonly.com

    also use zildjian hats and rides and paiste rides

    but bhosphorus are great crashes partic in the studio

    have a listen to the crashes in my kit here - two bhosphoruss crashes

    the ride is an EAK zildjian from 1984
    the hats are 13 inch k top a custom mastersound bottom

    I just started using Agean Cymbals (www.ageancymbals.com)
    B25 - completely hand made genuine Turkish cymbals.
    I'm just amazed how good they are that I've gone ahead and gotten rid of my Zildjian's after 10 years playing nothing but!
    The prices are excellent too - even with the 150 euro shipping cost.

    I've always been a Sabian man myself. I know too many people who have problems with Zildjians.

    If your looking at bringing in a new line, why not try something different. IIRC, there is no Irish agent for Murat Diril cymbals. I've heard only good things about them, and they've been compared to K customs. Good value too.
