I started out with a $5 pair of no - name zils but HATED the sound of them. Totally dissonant and NOT tuned with each other in the slightest. Thankfully, someone "borrowed" them for several months at a drum circle so I was able to justify getting a pair of Saroyan Nefertiti zils that I used until this past week.
I am soooooo excited!!! I got a pair of Zildjian zills this past Tuesday cuz my instructor said it was time for me to graduate to a professional pair. What a GREAT sound! They are definitely LOUD and heavier than I am used to but what a treat!
I agree with the previous posters about Saroyan -- for the best price and the best quality you can't go wrong getting a set of probably anything he makes.
