Zildjian K Sweet Cymbal Pack (15" Hi-Hats, 17" and 19" Crashes, 21" Ride)
The K Sweet Cymbal Pack is a set of four oversized K Sweet cymbals: 15" hi-hats, 17" and 19" crashes and a 21" ride. It takes the K sound in a sweeter, more responsive direction that suits every style of music.
What sets it apart
- A complete K Sweet setup
- Oversized hi-hats for a wide wash
- Odd-size crashes, lower in pitch
- 21" ride thin enough to crash
Sizes shifted up by an inch
Every cymbal is an inch larger than the usual size. The 15" hi-hats pair a thin top with an extra heavy bottom: plenty of wash without losing a solid foot "chick". The 17" and 19" crashes, with unlathed bells, sound lower and slightly darker.
A ride that can crash too
The 21" Sweet Ride is medium-thin. It offers good stick definition and a clear bell, and it opens up when struck on the edge. Zildjian describes the pack as an answer to drummers asking for a complete K Sweet setup.

Frequently asked questions
- K Sweet or K Custom Dark?
- K Sweet is sweeter and more responsive, in oversized diameters. K Custom Dark gets overhammering that makes it drier and grittier. Both stay on the dark side.
- Can you crash the ride in this pack?
- Yes. Zildjian says the 21" Sweet Ride is thin enough that you can crash it, while keeping good definition on the bow.
- How many cymbals make a complete kit?
- Hi-hats, a crash and a ride are enough to start. With two crashes, this pack gives a brighter accent on the left (17") and a bigger one near the ride (19").
