The Paiste 900 Series cymbals offer a bold blend of professional sound, striking aesthetics and exceptional value, making them a top choice for drummers ready to step into higher-level gear. Introduced in 2017 and crafted from the renowned CuSn8 “2002 Bronze” alloy, these cymbals carry the legendary warmth, brilliance and durability that define Paiste’s legacy. Through a hybrid manufacturing process, they are refined by Swiss hand hammering and lathing, then finished with a distinctively darkened surface that enhances both their visual character and sonic complexity – showcasing visible hammer marks and lathing grooves that blend roughness with elegance.
Designed with modern versatility in mind, the 900 Series delivers a warm, full sound with a musical energy and a flexible, giving feel that enhances playability and dynamic control. Heavier and larger models provide added brilliance, cut and projection, making them suitable for both live and studio settings across a wide range of genres. With a comprehensive selection including Crashes, Rides, Hi-Hats, Splashes and Chinas in various weights and sizes, the 900 Series meets the stylistic demands of today’s diverse drummers – setting a new standard for advanced cymbal performance at an accessible price.
Paiste Colour Sound 900 cymbals come enhanced with a vibrant, translucent colour-coated finish, producing a slightly drier sound with shorter sustain and a more focused attack.
