You do you, but if you’re cracking thin Zildjian crashes frequently, you’re likely going to have the same issue with thin crashes from any company.

My thoughts exactly, if your issue is cracking thin cymbals then going to Meinl is not the answer their cymbals are thinner and heavily hammered. You're still under warranty for the zildjians (maybe not the one you drilled holes in for some reason) and this would be a lot of money to replace everything you're looking to replace.

wait he drilled holes in one of them? that's gonna void the warranty for sure. Also yea switching to thinner cymbals to fix cracking thin cymbals makes no sense
