A classic among Rock cymbals

Cymbal manufacturer Zultan began its success story with the launch of its "Rock Beat" series in the year 2000. These cymbals are hammered and milled by hand in Zultan's workshops by Turkish artisans and guarantee a full and multifaceted sound that easily cuts through in a mix and makes them perfect for Rock music. Thanks to the wide range of models, sizes, and thicknesses available, however, players of many other styles will also find what they are looking for here. Never before has a professional cymbal sound been available at such an affordable price.

Bright sound and dazzling looks

For centuries, a combination of 80% copper and 20% tin has been the recipe for perfection when it comes to cymbal-making, and is consequently the one used by every manufacturer for their top-of-the-line series. The prices that these cymbals fetch leave the majority of drummers shaking their heads, however - all the better therefore that Zultan's Rock Beat series is within the reach of those who don't have a fortune to spend. The 9" Splash provides punchy accents, while its dazzling finish makes it look pretty damn good at the same time.

More than just Rock

When it says "Rock" on the outside, there should be Rock on the inside - and that is absolutely true of Zultan's Rock Beat series. Thanks to its bright and full-bodied sound, the 9" Splash can easily cut through in a louder musical context and is therefore the ideal choice for all types of Rock music. Thanks to its sensitive response, however, it already develops its full potential in the lower dynamic range and is thus also a great choice for styles like Pop, Funk, and Blues.

About Zultan

To provide traditional craftsmanship at a fair price has been the guiding principle of Zultan ever since it was founded in 2000. The firm’s practice of selling directly to the end customer makes it possible to offer very customer-friendly prices. Nevertheless, the production process for Zultan’s trademark cymbals, which are made mainly in Turkey, is of the highest quality, a fact which has ensured they have also been a fixture in the Thomann range since 2011. The nearly 250 Zultan products cover several cymbal series, catering for all sectors of the music market. Zultan also offers accessories such as bags and drumsticks. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials and manufacturing expertise, Zultan really does offer uncompromising quality at a reasonable price.

Professional sound at a budget-friendly price

Those who start learning to play the drums should pay particular attention to the quality of their cymbals, because while lower-grade cymbals may be sufficient for the needs of some players, they do still have clear limitations in terms of dynamics and expression. With its Rock Beat 9" Splash (or perhaps even one of its affordable complete sets), Zultan gives drummers impressive quality at an affordable price, so an enjoyable playing experience is guaranteed in the long term. Even professional drummers who already have B20 cymbals may find the 9" Splash to be the perfect addition to their existing setup.

Zultan 9" Rock Beat Splash

Anonymous 27.02.2016

I bought this splash to renew my cymbal setup after having bought two new crashes and was very pleasantly surprised. It's thick enough to not need to smash it or have it very angled to get enough sound out of it. When I record (and I don't use a top of the line, thousand euro microphone setup), it cuts perfectly and leaves no "impurities" in the mix. When hit with a solid stroke (don't have to go as far as pounding it either), it almost sounds trashy/oriental, and adds that much more variety to my sound. It is rather thick so I don't see it shattering near the bell or anything any time soon but this does mean the sustain is longer than say Sabian AAX or HHX splashes of approximately the same size (8" or 10", I would say and I don't mean the air splashes). Overall and especially considering how affordable it is, this is still a B20 cymbal that has a pleasant finish (beware of fingerprints though) and sounds absolutely great. Would recommend. Thomann never seems to disappoint.

Really nice splash

Monttis 24.11.2021

I really like this splash, it looks good and has very good build quality. It sounds quite bright and brilliant, has a nice clean sound. Maybe it's just very slightly more on the quiet type of splashes.

Ottimo splash

Anonymous 16.10.2016

Possiedo anche la versione da 8" e da 10" di questo splash. Se proprio dovessi cercare il pelo nell'uovo, forse, per la tonalità, è quello che preferisco di meno tra i tre. Tuttavia li ho montati tutti è tre sopra gli hi hat, un po' come le chimes di Gavin Harrison, e di fatto hanno un suono complementare, quasi intonato su una progressione armonica di toni. A differenza dei due sopracitati, questo splash da 9" è proporzionatamente il più brillante e presente tra i tre: si tratta però di una sfumatura, non di una differenza netta e marcata.

Klasse wie immer

Marcus3094 29.08.2015

Seit nunmehr ca. 15 Jahren verwende ich die Zultan Becken. Früher hießen sie Turkish und nach wie vor bin ich sehr zufrieden mit allen Becken. Natürlich reichen sie niemals an die highend Produkte aus den Häusern Pasite oder Zildjian heran. Das müssen sie bei auch nicht. Für den Hobby und Semi-Prof Bereich gibt es aus meiner Erfahrung nichts besseres. Über Klangeindrücke läßt sich immer streiten, da das immer subjektiv ist wie wer was empfindet. Preis, Qualität, Verarbeitung alles meag seit Jahren
