THE BEST CYMBAL ON THIS EARTH! 10/10!!

"WOW!! JUST WOW!!! i got the 18" k sweet crash and the 22" k sweet ride and those things whale!! i like to play rock music and it does not matter what type of music you play they will correspond with the way you play! if you like a bright but still dark then i would get the 16" crash but if you like a colorful and dark crash then i recommend getting the 18" crash. and the bells YESSH!! those things sound awesome!! one of the best things about them is how fun they are to play with, So if you are looking for a great cymbal for your setup then i REALLY recommend these cymbals!!"

— Hoada-de-vida K. (5/5)

Wonderful sound!

"I added this cymbal to my other 16 and 19 inch crashes and my 21 inch K projection ride, awesome sound!"

— Miguel O. (5/5)

I prefer a faster attack

"I prefer a faster attack than this, but it is pretty on the sweet spot for tone and feel off the sticks. Ya probably should have one of these in 16""

— Josh V. (4/5)

Sweet Zildjians

"I recently purchased the Zildjian sweet cymbal pack, I love everything about them. I wanted one more crash so I added on the sweet 16” these things sound awesome!!"

— Robert C. (5/5)

These K Sweets are Unreal

"I have a big problem with the 18" and 20" K Sweet crashes I own. I picked them up in '22 and '23. The problem is that they are truly such beautiful, full, perfect crashes that fit literally every genre and application, that now I can't buy anything else without being disappointed. Every crash I try now that's not a K Sweet sounds like garbage by comparison. Seriously, this is not good. I'm a cymbal geek and I can't just have 2-3 crashes. I can't even find a Paiste crash I like at all anymore."

— Scott H. (5/5)

Great sound cymbal

"This cymbal is amazing nice tone of colors. K ZILDJIAN are the best cymbals good for any genre of music. I play hard too so for 35 years now I have cracked cymbals. It can happen no matter the thick or thinness of a cymbal."

— Ian D. (5/5)

Great crash. It truly is sweet!

"This is the best crash I have ever owned. I own a 16 inch A which was not exactly the sound I wanted for jazz venues. The Sweet K is a full sound with medium decay. It is perfect!"

— Duke (5/5)

Nice sounding crash!

"Upgrading some of my cymbals, ALL ZILDJIAN"

— Mr P. (5/5)

There's a reason why it's called "sweet"!

"I was inclined to buy the 18" K Custom Dark Crash, as I'm very familiar with the series. I decided to give this "sweet" crash a try and OH BOY! It has the perfect balance between huge and gentle. It's very responsive and has a short decay, which makes it the right cymbal to record with. The bell itself is very usable as a ride, but the body opens up very quickly for riding purposes. Bashing on it and you got the whole music bashing along. Didn't play it on stage yet, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna love it."

— Weidell P. (5/5)

Great Cymbal

"I purchased the crash after I saw Gavin Harisson and I needed a large crash, I have since fallen in love with it and it has become my go-to crash out of 3."

— Drummer (5/5)
