The most recognizable of all Paiste cymbal lines, the 2002 series is known for its bright attack, clear projection and strong ties to rock.

The Sounde Edge Hi-Hat is one of many cymbal design innovations pioneered by Paiste. The bottom cymbal features a wavy edge, giving the cybmal a bright, pointed "chick" and penetrating stick sound.
