Low Volume Cymbal Box Sets Are your neighbours taking up all your practice time with their complaints? The Zildjian L80 Low Volume Cymbal is tested to have 80% sound reduction to a traditional cymbal.
The L80 Low Volume cymbal is designed for drummers looking for a quieter sound without losing the authentic feel of a Zildjian cymbal.
A specialized pattern was achieved to deliver the best of both worlds: musical sound and lower volume. This pattern is combined with a proprietary alloy and then given a unique matte finish that enables our L80 Low Volume cymbal to be up to 80% quieter than a traditional cymbal.
