A Custom Features
Selective
Concentrates on an exclusive range of sounds drawn from the A Zildjian palette.

Distinctive

Modern
Enables contemporary drummers to add classic A Series sounds to today's music.

Unique
Every cymbal is individually cast and rolled from the secret Zildjian alloy, creating instruments that each have a distinct voice and character.

Sound: Great sound, I have Feature: No features. Ease of Use: Um, hit the cymbals, they make great sounds,,,,very simple to use. Quality: They're Zildjian A series, so that speaks for itself. Value: I agree with the other review, they could come down in price a bit. Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed alot of support but what support I have received has been great. The Wow Factor: These cymbals in my setup are incredible, the sight and sound of my kit is outstanding. Overall: I have a 17", 18" and 19" crashes and they sound great together, I have the exact sound I have been looking for.

"Great cymbal, Great sound!"
Sound: I love the sound. It awseome! It projects like it was design to. I love the feel of it as well. I own a 16" and a 17". Feature: N/A Ease of Use: Keep in mind this is a thin cymbal for those of you who have a problem cracking cymbals (reason you hit to hard) this cymbal is not for you. I play in a rock band, and have been using these cymbals for about 2 1/2 years, and have not cracked one yet. The secret is not to kill the cymbal. Quality: No problem with the quality, I even use one as a crash ride! Value: I give it a 7 because, I do believe they could come down in price just a little. Manufacturer Support: Never dealt with the company, I have never had a problem with there products. The Wow Factor: They look great, sound great, play great! Overall: I would probaly replace with the same!

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
