* The 802, our newest cymbal line, sets the new top standard in the value cymbal category. Our half century experience in creating real cymbal sound in this class has culminated in an unbeatable fusion of sound and value. The three factors which allow us to make sophisticated yet affordable cymbals are a combination of the alloy, the design and the production method. In creating the new 802, we use our proprietary CuSn8 bronze alloy, which features enhanced sound properties derived from decades of research. Then we apply the cymbal making principles accumulated through our extensive experience in the hand manufacture of our professional lines. Finally, we utilize the help of automated tools to realize production efficiencies that allow us to offer these cymbals at significant savings. The result is satisfying cymbal sound and function with professional features and legendary Paiste sound characteristics: cutting power, brilliance, energy, warmth, and musicality. <br> In creating the 802, we strove to make these cymbals look like their cousins in our professional cymbal lines. The result is a cymbal surface that is virtually indistinguishable from an exclusively hand made cymbal, like the Sound Formula or Alpha. Thus, 802's form a perfect harmony between their ambitious sound property and their sophisticated appearance. (1)<br>

802

Introduction: 1993
Discontinued: 2003
Background: 802 & 802 PLUS series, popular budget level cymbals from 1993 to 2003.
Paiste enhanced them sonically in 1997 and they received the plus-labeling in addition of the 802. Discontinued in 2003 to make way for the new Paiste Sound Technology-, or PST-series, Made from B8 (2002) alloy.
Paiste once wrote: In creating the 802, we strove to make these cymbals look like their cousins in our professional cymbal lines. "The result is a cymbal surface that is virtually indistinguishable from an exclusively hand made cymbal, like the Sound Formula or Alpha. Thus, 802's form a perfect harmony between their ambitious sound property and their sophisticated appearance".
In the 802 PLUS, Paiste made a change in hammer techniques created an additional enhanced sonic texture surface, adding the PLUS to them.
