For the manufacture of PST 5 cymbals Paiste uses the same high-grade bronze alloy as in their professional class, which became famous through their 2002 series.

"The best thing since the invention of drums!!"
Sound: The sound is amazing for the price! The ride and crash are probably the best sounding cymbals i've ever owned. the hi-hats have to grow on you though.. I just got them today and i instantly fell in love with them. Feature: A bounus crash would be awesome but they dont come with one so :( but they make up for it. Quality: The sound i already talked about. But the looks are completely diffrent from the picture.. they have a brillant finnish and it really catches your attenion! Value: They are pretty valuable. Manufacturer Support: dont need it. The Wow Factor: I honestly reccomend these cymbals for anyone. Overall: The only fault i can pick out about it is that it picks up stick marks and finger prints very easily.

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Paiste PST 5 Universal Cymbal Set"
Sound: The sound is great. Very bright and clear stick definition. Definetely not for people who want dark sounding cymbals. RIDE: The ride is quite washy and that's not necessarily bad, I just prefer not too much wash. It has a very clear stick attack and amazing, bright bell. It also crashes nice ( 9/10 ) Crash: One of the best crashes I have heard in a while. Easily a contender to higher end crashes but affordable. Again, VERY BRIGHT and it has a relatively long sustain. Nice bell and it is also a pretty nice ride. ( 9.5/10 ) High-Hats: An amazing high hat set. It is quite loud and can cut through loud music which is always a plus. The open sound is very bright and nice. Overall, amazing high hats ( 9/10 ) Feature: + BEAUTIFUL SOUND + GREAT FINISH + QUITE LOUD - RIDE IS A BIT TOO WASHY (MY OPINION) Ease of Use: Every single hit of any of these cymbals, you will get a great sound. They are not the best sounding cymbals, so they may seem weak compared to expensive cymbals. Quality: All of Paiste Cymbals are extremely well made and even though these are very affordable, they are still very reliable and sound. Value: The value is probably the best part of this set. Extremely affordable at only £220 but amazing cymbals. I would say ranging from Intermediate players to advanced are welcome to this set Manufacturer Support: You will not need manufacture support but Paiste does offer money back guarantee. The Wow Factor: I was completely shocked when I played these cymbals. THE BEST YOU WILL FIND AT THAT PRICE RANGE, GUARANTEED. I was astounded and I think you will be too :) Overall: Having tried and played these cymbals, I have to say for the price, YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER CYMBAL SET! Amazing sounding and looking are just few of the great feature's of this pack.
