Three-zone approach
During the course of their ongoing research into cymbal performance, TRX master cymbalsmiths recognized that modifying the three main areas of a cymbal - the edge, bell and face - can greatly influence its acoustical output. By developing a unique combination of manufacturing methods that optimize each zone\'s sonic impact they were able to create the LTD series.

The outer edge of LTD crash-ride cymbals features a heavily polished finish that adds more brightness and explosiveness to the crash component of the sound while the bell of the cymbal is has a natural finish to increase the definition and articulation of the ride sound.

To maintain a balance between the LTD\'s clarity and power and its overall warmth and full-frequency tonal spectrum, the main playing surface has a more traditional lathed and hand-hammered finish. In the case of the hi-hats, this \"three-zone\" approach provides a cleaner, crisper stick and foot sound plus more volatile open and half-open effects.

Combo pack
Slightly heavier than TRX MDM (Medium) series to further enhance their projection and durability, TRX LTD line is recommended for a variety of contemporary playing situations. The cymbals are sold individually but are also available in an exclusive crash-ride combo pack, which includes an 18\" and 20\" crash-ride, 14\" hi-hats and a free TRX deluxe cymbal bag, while supplies last.
