I was looking for a cymbal that was a little brighter than my current Zildjian K and K Customs cymbals.
This cymbal fits the bill perfectly, as its the Medium thin it is slightly darker than the normal Medium A cymbals but not too dark.
Being a new A is it also slightly thinner than the earlier A cymbals as Zildjian redesigned the series recently with the original 70s thinner profiles.
After purchasing this cymbal I've since gone on and bought a 20" to increase my range of sounds and colours within my kit.
So to sum up, Great sounding cymbal, dark but with plenty of cut and very loud. Ideal :-)

Blends With K's

Got this after playing one in college, excellent cymbal, warm and very dynamic. I play k series and k customs which are very dark warm cymbals and this blends with them perfectly and its considerable cheaper.
Both live and it studio it cuts just nicely while not going over the vocal which is a why a prefer big and dark cymbals as the stay out of the vocalists frequency. I use this in rock, fusion and pop settings and it works with everything!!

What's happened to Zildjian?

I'm just starting to replace my aging A Zildjians I bought 20 years or more ago as they're tired and splitting etc. Bought a like for like 19" replacement and inside 12 months it split, so tried a K 19" it split too just over 12 months after purchase. Converted to Paiste 2002's and I'll never go back. The glory days for Zildjian are over as far as I'm concerned
