You mean the Titanium ones? They look cool, but they probably wouldn't sound that good, because they're still ZXT's.

Yeah the titanium ones.  Seems a bit of a strange material to make cymbals out of, oh well.

As far as I know it's just a titanium (or titanium looking) coating.

I dont know about you guys - I tossed em around for awhile at the local Guitar Center and they sound like crap.  I personally think its marketing/image that their trying to push with these.  They sound like cheap brass Camber cymbals coated with some Titanium alloy.  To me, you get what you pay for....their cheap.

when i played on the titaniums at like samash or guitar center i notice a difference. not a major difference but a difference. well to make a long story short. i like the brass better and you shouldnt waste money on something that people are trying to get money off of.

ZXT Titaniums aren't very cheap. Over 700 list for a pack (ride, crash, hats). They sell for under 400 usually. I think they are a bit harsh/mettalic sounding, but the 10" splash I tried sounded really cool. It was bright and cut through well while still being musical. If you play loud metal (is there any other kind?) then these cymbals might work for you. They will definately cut through. But if you play other kinds of music you probably won't like them.
