The Signature Power Crash from Paiste is musical, transparent, beautiful, rich, colorful, full, clear, expressive sound. The range of models features everything from particularly delicate, well balanced and sensitive to expressive, potent and powerful and projective qualities. These are ideal for those playing in loud situations.

From rock to metal, nothing cuts like Paiste Signature-series cymbals. The 19-inch Paiste Signature Power Crash is crafted in Switzerland from heavyweight Signature Bronze to give you the brilliance and projection to be heard from all the way in the back row. The Signature Power Crash has a naturally glassy attack and long, lingering tail that stand up well to stage use.

The inky-finished Paiste 2002 Giga Bell Ride, branded the PsychOctopus after its creator, sounds something like another famous large-belled ride. It has a dry ping and throaty bell tone that work well for metal and articulate cymbal work

Designed by Metal Drummer Aquiles Priester.

14” HHX Medium Hats introduce a whole new design to the HHX line. Starting with a round of sparse hammering, followed by lathing, then denser HHX hammering over top, the result is a pair of Hats that is thinner, darker and faster. A slightly larger bell boosts volume and power – but these are Hats that trend lighter in weight than most Medium Hats. 

Well rounded, fast splash for short accents, good for most musical applications Hand-hammered bell and bow with hand-trued edges Explosive feel with quick decay Made in Switzerland with over 100 years of cymbal making experience.

Forged from the legendary “602 Bronze” (CuSn20); offering a complete new wide and dynamic sound dimension; developed in close collaboration with Vinnie Colaiuta; handcrafted from start to finish by highly skilled Swiss craftsmen; conceived and executed according to Vinnie's uncompromising sound concepts for a wide all-round application. Formula 602 Modern Essentials cymbals combine the essence of the Formula 602 Classic Sounds models – transparency and stick definition – with the richness; warmth; darkness and a bit of complexity of the Signature Traditionals series besides providing slightly more pizzazz than its Classic Sounds siblings.

Paiste Sound Technology stands for first-class manufactured cymbals and high-quality sound design at an affordable price. Considering recent musical trends, the PST 5 was newly designed by Paiste's Swiss Sound Development Team. Visually the PST 5 were consciously altered only in detail but their fundamental sonic value changed considerably.

Masters Vintage Series are boldly noted by Bosphorus as the embodiment of their philosophy and represents their absolute finest work. These cymbals carry the distinctive colors of the wood-oven. Their thin, hand hammered bell and profile produce a soft, "played-in" feel. Crashes have trashy initial attack, and decays quickly, with a complex fundamental note that works well with the rides. Incredibly expressive rides produce dark, warm, low-pitched cushion of tone.
