'''Review:''' "Most  China  cymbals  I’ve  played  can  be  classified  either  as “trashy” or “gongy.” Whether used as crashes or as rides, the Byzance  Chinas  are  definitely  in  the  gongy  category.  The sound of the 16" model is particularly metallic. The 18" and 20" models  have  more  overtones,  but  they’re  still  very  dry,  and their pitches are really low." <br>

Review: "Most China cymbals I’ve played can be classified either as “trashy” or “gongy.” Whether used as crashes or as rides, the Byzance Chinas are definitely in the gongy category. The sound of the 16" model is particularly metallic. The 18" and 20" models have more overtones, but they’re still very dry, and their pitches are really low."
