Review: "This may be the only weak spot in the Innovations series. By only offering 10" and 11" sizes, the line doesn't provide much tonal variation. Both have the same thickness, which makes them very similar in sound—with just a slight pitch difference. They are quick and bright, with almost no sustain. As such, they seem best-suited for quick, solid accents, as opposed to sweeping dynamics at various volumes of attack. They are heavy-sounding splashes over-all, and they need to be struck sharply to achieve their optimum sound quality. That's not a bad thing; it's just very one-dimensional."
