Review: It's a warm sounding crash, which surprised me the first time I heard it. (After all, it is heavy.) It's full-sounding, punchy, and has heaps of volume. There is one thing i noticed which I feel like I should mention - there's an odd hum to this. It wouldn't be enough that I'd not recommend this cymbal, but it is present. The hum wouldn't be heard when using this in a live situation.
One last thing, this was not the original name for the Power Crash. For awhile both models were offered in the 2002 series concurrently.
