Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: This has a beautiful dark wash. Big sound as you would imagine from its size, but soft sounding and not high-pitched, so it blends well into the music. Goes well with my 2002 15" Sound Edge Hi-Hat, 2002 24" Ride and 2002 20" Crash.

Review: Much like the Thin crash 20". A bit more natural sounding, low pitched, warm. Fast for its size. Somewhat ride able. Has a soft but nice sounding bell.

Review: (Review for both 22" & 24" Crashes) They crash beautifully, with an extremely low pitch and the unmistakably clean attack that make the 2002s so special. They have that crystal-clean shimmer of a 2002 stretched out and lowered in pitch. As ride cymbals, they were okay at low volumes, though their wash has none of the control you'd expect from a ride. Paiste has simply made a big pair of crashes in both sizes without compromises.
