The thing I've discovered with cymbals; after a certain price point, you just buy what you like, they all sound good, and with proper technique and care they will last almost forever.
And the funnier thing I've discovered, regardless of how unique and individual it sounds, once it goes under a microphone through a mixing console to be recorded, it'll get eq'd a certain way and it'll sound like all the other cymbals you hear on the radio or on recordings. Take a listen - Neil Peart's signature Sabian cymbals will sound just like the Paistes Jeff Porcaro used on a Toto recording. It's true!
