Review: "My favorite crashes in both weight categories were the 17" and 18" models. They all responded well with full voices and powerful sustain. Surprisingly, I found that the 18" Medium could be used quite nicely as a "big-finish crash" in a lower-volume situation, played with a 5A stick. It didn't have to be walloped in order for it to sound full; it spoke out quite readily at a medium impact."
