Other than they are for sound effects only, I would have no idea.
What's good, bad and ugly with this pack....??? I was just browsing.
Other than they are for sound effects only, I would have no idea.
The Good: They are a step up from the ZBT beginner cymbals (which are a step up from the trash can lids that come with beginner kits). Some people like the sound enough to keep them on their kits, while others use them on their practice kits.
The Bad: They aren't high end cymbals, but then they also don't come with the hig end price. In the end, though, when compared with quality cymbals there will definitely be a noticeable difference.
The Ugly: Because they aren't trash can lid cymbals, I can't think of an ugly!

I agree with PB , the good part is they are Zildjian , the bad part is they arent the top shelf item , but if you like their sound , then thats what really counts .
I have been looking at an EFX , and wanting one for a while but dont want to drop 200 bucks on it right now .
Thanks! I have the ZBT's. I really want to upgrade, but $700 is a little out of range, now. Any preference on A custom??
I was looking at an A custom , 16 " EFX........listed for $239.
I was on the Zildjian web-site , they have a link to listen to what they sound like , if you have the time to sit and play around for a little bit , pretty cool site .
Actually, the 18" ZHT china sounds suprisingly pretty good. For the money I might consider one myself.

That's one rad looking cymbal. I'm gonna have to look into these ZHTs.

The ZHT's are actually pretty good, well they were for me
Their concidered "semi-pro" that means for me at least, gig worthy, but not recording worthy
Their 12% tin, meaning their closer to the cast cymbal sound then ZBT's, and they seem to be pretty solid
Of course, I put a couple of cracks in my 14 in fast crash, but I was beating the bloody hell out of it, with a bad technique, so I cant really judge
Their a good budget cymbal, a good gigworthy cymbal, and they dont sound bad for the money
But, you can spend, literally a couple dollars more, get the same thing from sabian, wait, it might be about the same since prices on zildjian have risen, but, a starter pack for ZHT's were around 350$, Xs20 was 400$
The XS20 line, look into them, cast cymbals, that arnt given the full love of the higher end cast cymbals, but they sound great, their also "semi-pro" but nicer on the recording ears, they should be around the same price
Oh and their 20% 80% copper, which is the same as most professional cymbals
the 10" ZHT splash is pretty good
