Sounds good to me, multiple samples: good idea

From a feel under the sticks, those are probably pretty good. I had a set of the acoustic Zildjian practice cymbals in a teaching facility a few years back. I requested the store buy them for the room and they did. Those and mesh heads were great for a small space where other people were also playing and learning.
The way cymbals react under the stick is a big thing. Hell, I have trouble playing Paiste cymbals because my muscles are so defined for the Turkish manner of making cymbals.

I played Paiste 2002 and 505's when I turned pro at 18 (sheesh 42 years ago!) Those cymbals were the "tough kids on the block" but I was into Rush and Peart back then and they had this explosive shimmer that sounded really exciting. There's no way I could play with that sound now and that amount of cymbal inertia. Still, wish I'd kept that 18" 505 China Type .... they go for crazy money these days!

So how are these cymbals different from the Gen-16s that were discontinued some years ago?

Paiste's feel "hard" to me anymore (although I used to use a few way back too). I'm into the "soft and buttery" cymbals. Electronic anything has never done it for me yet. And for those that think we are nuts, it's like Billy Gibbons (who plays 7's and 8's) trying to play SRV's guitar (with 13's). It's gonna feel way different.

The kinesiology of playing an instrument is so important, and become so second nature that changes in the stimuli can throw you. It is the Paiste 'hard' thing that I notice too. If you inspect them, the very edges are quite different that Turkish varieties.
