Review: "Nowadays there's a series of really heavy 'crash' cymbals in 2002 (and 508 if you're interested) designed primarily for heavy music. Three sizes are produced; 16", 18" and 20" and they're absolutely ideal to complement those 'Power Rides'. There really is extra strength to their crash sound and yet they still don't sound at all 'gongy'. It can't have been easy to incorporate strength and a 'breathy' quality too. I found the 16" perfect. It was round but with edge too."
