I have both, the K paper thin are cleaner whereas the Meinl are a little trashier. I would compare the Meinl ETH crashes more to the K Cluster crashes.
Thin cymbals in general sound amazing because much less forced is required to get a full sound from them. And then combine that with Zildjian’s K line and yoooo 😮💨
WOW! My kind of cymbals! Yeah, I gotta some of these in set up, 18", 19" and 20" crashes could be what I went for, great demo of these crashes from the energetic Nick.
i thought Istanbul Agop 22” crashes sounded good, but these sounds amazing. I love how these have a prominent but brief shimmer, but also have a very prominent dark musicality to it. I love the smokiness that the 22” possess as well - these cymbals might make me jump ship to Zildjian
Oh boy. If they've just made them also In brilliant finish they would of been the cherry on top the cake. I'm a brilliant finish cymbal lover. They sound awesome though
I describe the A line as shrill. They will cut through marshall stacks though. I've been using the K series and love them. Definitely need overheads to mix well with powerful guitar amps.
Oh man those sound soo gooood! On every demo ive looked at they seem to sound really well balanced. Would be interested to see how they respond in person. P.S: what hihat's are those Nick 👀👀👀👀👀 they look and sound sweeeeet
I am currently using a Paiste PST7 19 inch thin crash as a ride or crash depending on the gig. These K ones sound really good. Really, really good. I liked the 19 and 22 the most, but they all sound amazing.
Im torn... ive been eyeballing the K Sweets and they seem very versatile but these! Im a prog rock/metal drummer and i also play some jazz fusion. Anyone have any opinions/preferences between the sweets and the paper thins?
if you want 18-20" crashes, i’d suggest the K Sweets. if you want larger cymbals, probably the K Paper Thins because they’re the only 21 and 22 inch crashes Zildjian offers
It takes less material to make thinner cymbals yet the prices are going to be pretty high I see.I ordered a regular 22 K ride been dying to get one for years and that was way to washy I was very bummed because my Regular 20 K ride is perfect so I thought the 22 would be as well.With that said other than the K sweet line I'm pretty much done with Ks ,but these do sound nice gotta admit .

Reminds me of the Meinl Buzance Extra Thin Hammered Crashes; I have the 20” personally. Love the papery thin bright sound!

They sound amazing
These have got to be the nicest sounding cymbals I’ve ever heard
Perfect man for the job.
I really don't think that any drumshop has better guy for the work :)
Some very distinctive tones! Something I don't get to hear very often. Very nice indeed. And a great video too, thanks for sharing 🤘
Beautiful, smooth decay sounds! Really musical.

Great. I’ve just got the K Sweet series kit. One of these would be the perfect complement. Thanks. Love to see and hear Nick again. 😎👍
Holy smokes, somebody did a cymbal demo with nylon tips 🤯😂 Go, Nick. Nice crispy cymbals, too.
Im not a drummer but these sound almost perfect
The 20 sounds best to me - that thing is awesome
I’ve got the 22 inch crash and it’s my favorite cymbal!

to my ears they sound amazing when they are played 'softer'...
Nick you a bad bad man 👊🏾🔥😎👍🏽💯
I love my legacy crashes but one of these, the bigger ones would be fun to have
The 19 and 21 are really unbelievable tasty
🎶 now that we found love, what are we going to do with it? 🎶 When he does the tonal crashes that song immediately came to mind.
Oh boy. If they've just made them also In brilliant finish they would of been the cherry on top the cake. I'm a brilliant finish cymbal lover. They sound awesome though
Would this be better than the regular k darks for a ride/crash option?
Sounds gooood
If Zildjian would offer these in 17" I'd be able to build my ideal setup!
I describe the A line as shrill. They will cut through marshall stacks though. I've been using the K series and love them. Definitely need overheads to mix well with powerful guitar amps.
I describe them as glassy
Great review Nick
amazing demonstration!

P.S: what hihat's are those Nick 👀👀👀👀👀 they look and sound sweeeeet
These are the best new cymbals that Zildjian could have come up with for 2023. 😜👍
Great timbre but they really do lack body. These would be good when you want cymbals but don't want them to get in the way (audiological).
Speechless. Sublime.
The 21 sounds really beautiful as a high pitch ride.
Dude sweet, but yall need to get the Korina flying vs back in stock, left handed models if possible please. May peace be upon you all
You should probably call your sale engineer for guitar and ask them...
@@jas_bataille fair enough. Unfortunately I cannot recall who that is or even their number to contact. Much obliged though!

Probably go with mostly Sweets but get yourself at least one of these!
@hiptoalieu Thanks for the recommendation! see I was thinking the exact opposite but your suggestion totally makes sense, thanks again!

Those sound incredible good🔥🔥🔥
Belle présentations pour avoir la 18 et la 19 en crash vraiment satisfait de zildjian
these things so sooooo good
Which snare is that?
Lovely pies! They make me think of slightly dirtier/darker HHX Evolution Crashes. These prices though... 😱
It would be great if ZILDJIAN made Paper Thin HI HATS again! I have one but it's from the 1960s.
Avec ses nouvelles cymbales, Zildjian vient de frapper un méchant coup de circuit
😎 great demo

Which model is the hihat?
15” k constantinople
7:29 A CLUE A CLUE
These could be very useful to make a kind of a "wall of sound". They look and sound gorgeous. 🤩🤩🤩
Sound awesome, but I think for metal or punk they are not durable enough in the long run, right?
as long as they aren’t positioned completely flat and are tilted towards you, they’ll be just fine
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
These are the nicest Zildjians that aren’t Constantinoples
or k lights
Shame zildjian discontinued the k brilliants....
Fancy stuff!!! I wish I was made of money
Well Dayuuum!!! I knew they’d sound spectacular!!! Just like I know I’ll have to turn some tricks to be able to afford them!! F! ME!!!
... and there goes another 3 grand. Lol.
Worth it 🤑
Weird pitches
They sound great.. I just wish they would have come up with a better name.
i feel like K Smooth Crashes has a nice ring to it, like a sibling to the K Sweet Crashes
@@pinbackstack Agree. Good call.
Always have and a floor tom with ;)
