Series Description: Paiste Sound Technology stands for first-class manufactured cymbals and high-quality sound design at an affordable price. PST5 is the entry to Paiste's world of bronze cymbals, and since its introduction in 2005, it continues to be a best seller. Considering recent musical trends, the PST5 was newly designed by our Swiss Sound Development Team. Visually, the PST5 was consciously altered only in detail, but its fundamental sonic value changed considerably. The cymbals are lighter, resulting in a deeper, warmer sound while preserving their bright basic character. They have increased flexibility resulting in a more appealing feel. Overall, the new PST5 is significantly more musical.
