Excellent value for a complete cymbal pack. The B8's sound pretty balanced. The hats are a little high-pitched and slightly harsh, but give a pretty wide range of responses from the closed chick to the wide open hits. They are better than I anticipated, and much better than what I was prepared for, based on the low price. The 18" crash projects well, but the 16 inch crash is chintzy-sounding, and not very loud. Neither crash is what I would term full-bodied, but I definitely appreciate the fast decay of the crashes- they don't ring forever. The ride sounds pretty full, and was not nearly as harsh as I anticipated, although I was hoping for a more defined ping- the response decay is slow, so the cumulative ringing is fairly pronounced. The bell is very cheap sounding- not really a surprise overall. The cymbals are much heavier than I anticipated, and look just fine. I bought these for my rehearsal kit, so I was not expecting to buy recording-quality sound. All in all, I am pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of these cymbals, and you can't beat the price. I expect to get a long life from these as well- I am not a super heavy hitter, but I am not a jazz dude, either.

i love the sounds of the hi hats and the 16 inch crash and the free 18 inch crash is nice too. I didn't really like the sound of the ride only becuase i found it a little pingy.These cymbals are loud and very bright sounding there perfect for any kind of drummer.

In my pack it was originally suppose to be a 20" ride a 16" crash and 14" hi-hats but free inside the box i got a remo ambassador snare head a piar of vic firths a cymbal bag and a free 18" crash so it was pretty cool.

you just have to hit them.

the quality is really good theses cymbals will probaly last me forever.

i got $230 worth of free stuff so the value is good.

haven't needed support

They are very shiny and attract attention so they are pretty good in this department.

I use them primarily in my basement. They were overpowering, so I muffled them with varying amts. of sticky pads. Now they sound just right... been playing them like that for two years now.

Excellent for the $$! It came w/ hi-hats, 16", 18", 20" and a hardshell case... can't beat it.

No problems with them in 2 years of playing.

Well worth every penny.

No probs, no need to reach 'em.

Awesome purchase.

Just for fun... basement rock.
