i havent heard them in play to give a constructive comment.
but what i can say is that zildijan as cymbal makers are consistently excellent.
all the great and good have used them from chick webb to tim alexander
so i can only confidently presume that the cymbals you asked about must be of excellent quality?

I have played them at GC There in between Trad A's and A Customs. I think there a sweeter Trad A. I believe the dude said there just thinner Trad A's!

here's some info about um.
Based on the popular and the inimitable sound of the 60s, Zildjian proudly introduces the Armand series into the A Zildjian Range. During the explosion of rock and pop music of the 60's, the great drummers of groundbreaking bands used A Zildjian cymbals to make their mark. You can hear Zildjian's distinctive sound in the great recordings of that era, from The Beatles to The Beach Boys, from Cream to The Jimi Hendrix Experience, from The Rolling Stones to The Spencer Davis Group. Zildjian has now resurrected that nostalgic cymbal sound with these exciting new models.
New shaping techniques create a slightly lower profile than A Zildjians and help to offer a special warm and smooth blend of overtones. Lighter weight specifications promote a fast cymbal response with special lower-pitched overtones without the loss of projection potential.
Zildjian left these babies without any protective coating to help promote the aged look and patina that cymbals from the 60's would have today. A tighter lathe on top combined with the current A Zildjian lathing on the bottom results in a unique feel for each new model.
