My cymbal set up isnt a real large one: A 1964 Zildjian 18" ride, 17" K Dark Thin Crash, 14" K Dark Thin Crash double stacked with the 17, 14" Zildjian thin crash, one pair of Zildjian K Hybrid Custom 14 1/4" hi-hats mounted on a Gibraltar Ultra-Adjust hi-hat stand, one pair of Zildjian 14" New Beat hi-hats mounted on a Gibraltar X-Hat closed hi hat stand.
I have another 17" K Dark Thin crash, a 15" Zildjian thin crash, a Zildjian A 10" splash and a Zildjian 10" Rezo Splash and another 1964 18" Zildjian ride, a pair of Zildjian 13" A Custom Mastersound hi-hat cymbals and a pair of Zildjian New Beat 14" hi-hats that I use with my Road Kit...sometimes I pair up the splashes and the 17" K Dark thin and the 15" thin with the first detailed set up...depending on my mood. On one other occasion Ive set everything up except for the extra 2 hi hats and the extra 18" ride...which makes for a decent cymbal set up but way more than I need for the gig Im working.
I need to take a pic of it all....just for grins and giggles ( the other band members will REALLY freak out this time...I will tell them that this will be my permanent cymbal arrangement from now on.

Paiste PST's 14" H/Hats, 16" Crash and 18" I think the Ride is. Pretty basic really.
Hoping to add a second crash soon, Possibly Meinl Soundcaster or Zildjian A, maybe Zildjian K.

My DE crash is my favorite cymbal... OF ALL TIME!
Seriously, I think it is a phenomenal crash. When I crash/ride it, I'm in heaven. I've considered going with more DE cymbals... but then they come out with other cool stuff to take my money!
Since my DE crash purchase (2005 or so), I've acquired 18 and 24 Giant Beats, and 16 (!) Twenty series hats. If I was made of money, I'd probably have an outfit of DE, Giant Beat, and Twenty cymbals (hats, 1 or 2 crashes, ride), but as it stands, the mix I have right now seems to work fine.
