    Before Thomann channel split into different instrument channels, all drum reviews had a decibel counter on show. This would have been a perfect use for it.

    That is a very expensive device and probably few people have it in order to make a comparison with normal cymbals so it might be useless to know how much decibels these produce.

    so the perforations reduce the mass and you hear less crash or splash so the relationship with your neighbors won't go in the trash thanks Thomann's Drum Bash.

    But your neighbours will still talk brash, when you use the silent crash, unless you pay them cash. And even IF you pay them cash, your cymbals will get thrown into the trash in a flash, because your toddler has developed some diaper rash and is gonna splash all over your crash.

    Hi Guys, i'm using the millenium (Thomann house brand) stiil or low volume cymbals since they were on the marked. Due to a sudden deafness in my right ear i'm not allowed to expose myself to loud noises. So either i had to stop my drumming after 50 years or find a solution to keep the "noise" as low as possible. I've tried the Zildjians but sold them after being introduced to the Millenium's The still series of Thomann / Millenium are doing the job perfectly. I use meshheads on a accoustic drumset, a trigger set of Ddrum and a Roland TD4 drumsound module with a small amplification. The whole drumsound is leveled with the cymbals volume which gives me an awesome sound, drumfeel which i even use with my band. Even rehearsals are more pleasant and balanced than ever before. My fellow musicians are happy as well. The 14" hi-hat is perfect, the 16" crash is my least favorite, so i bought a second set for 120€ and only use the 18 and the 20" as crashes and the second 20" as a ride, i also bought me the Millenium still china which is also magnificent. The 2 x16" can be used as a large hi-hat or to create stack cymbals, but i put them aside, cause i"m happy with my set-up. So highly recvomendable. Musical regards Theo

    The Zildjian L80's are definitely the quietest low volume cymbals. I had a set when I was using an acoustic kit with mesh heads for practice for a while. But I didn't like the stick noise,or mesh heads come to that, very bouncy unrealistic feel. I went to an all electric kit for practice for a time, but recently have gone back to an acoustic kit with extremely dead plastic heads. Then I came across Centent whisper cymbals, I like them best! not as quiet as the L80's, so less obvious stick noise, but much sweeter sounding than the Millenium's, and incredibly cheap for a set comprising 14" hats, 16" & 18" crashes, and a 20" ride. Really nice set as low volume cymbals go!

    I have a Roland MDS-12V drum stand, witch is one of the TD-30 options - but I think they are all the same. I also have a set of Millennium quit cymbals, but I don´t think they fit very well on the Roland stand. The distance to fill out is quit large, and I would like to have some kind of a washer with a plastic bushing in the bottom to keep the cymbal from directly contacting the cymbal stand. I would be glad to get a suggestion how to fix this.

    Hmm...not sure. Aaron Spears uses it in combination with a spiral crash to get some more special effect cymbal sound. They could sound nice in electronic music. I think i would recommend the Sabian ones if you want to use them life because the Zildjian might be a little too soft and i'm not a big fan of the sound of the Millenium ones.

    Zildjian now also sells a 20" ride, which is fantastic, also a 10" splash and 18" china that I haven't played yet. While, there is some loud stick definition with the L80s, I found that certain sticks play quieter on the cymbals. Usually I use Vic Firth 5As but with L80s I've been using Vater Drumeo 5A's which you don't hear so much "stick". They are the best low volume cymbals in my opinion. Evans also now makes a set that sound pretty good.

    I have a 10" splash for a while now, worth the money. My favorite Z80 cymbal so far. :) But I'm considering getting a 20" ride and repurpose 18" as a secondary crash. Thanks for your input, I'm adding this to my wishlist. Winter is coming. ;)

    Heck yeah, the 20" ride is something else. Definitely a better ride than the 18". The bell on the 20' is way better! But yeah I use the 18" as a crash too. I take back what I said about the Vater sticks, I switched back to Vic Firth as they actually have less stick sound. I'm looking to get the 10" splash and 18" china when they come back in stock this holiday. Even thought of getting a half of the 13" hats and use it as a 13" splash too.
