The purpose of this splash was to be used in a stack. At first I was looking to buy an 8 inch Zildjian trashformer, but it was a little above my budget. So I got this one and paired it together with my A-custom 8 inch splash. I tried stacking them in various ways, but the best sounding stack came out by putting the A-custom on the bottom, then putting 4-5 tiny pieces of moongel on the bell of the A-custom and 5-6 pieces in the middle of the A-custom, and putting the Zultan one on the top.

This Zultan splash on it's own sounds pretty decent too, really crispy.

Cheap and very good
Jimmy McJimmy Jr 01.03.2024
These splashes are really good for the money. I got 2 to use as mini hats. They do that well, neither have inverted, they also work as splashes, strange I know seeing as they are splashes.

Each one has its own character, the best sounding one is my favourite, the second best one is my second favourite.

The sound is quirky, a short bark, a bit like a bottle being smashed, combined with change being spilt all over the floor.
It’s a bit like a mini gong being thrown down an escalator on a wet Tuesday in April. Somewhere near Hull.

I really like this splash. It’s crazy cheap and has bags of character.
I’ve been playing it for 2 years and it’s still going strong. It’s made its money back and then some.
Surprised at the quality.
As usual Thomann are flawless.

Not so great to use by itself
healy866 16.08.2021
I would not use this cymbal by itself. Not a great sound out of it, but that's to be expected for the price. I use this cymbal with a 10" cymbal and I think it sounds great as a stack. I also put this cymbal on my snare drum as a weight/clap effect. Gives the drum a nice trashy, muted sound (if that makes sense). I keep this cymbal in my cymbal bag, if you get creative with it you can get some really interesting sounds.

Overall not a great cymbal, but it's affordability and size makes it quite useful if you're willing to get creative.

I just love this splash
joevagyok 29.09.2020
First time I bought this crash, I just love it. I prefer the sound of it over some way more premium splash on the market. It has really quick response and it's just great to use it for some unexpectedly placed licks in a groove. It's no too loud, blends in perfectly with the rest of the kit.
