Review: Bright and responsive. not overly loud but it's got enough balls to make it's presence known in most situations. it opens up quickly and fades with an unbelievably beautiful shimmer. if you are a one crash only man / woman, this is the crash for you.

Review: A beautiful sounding cymbal. The sweet, shimmering explosion of the cymbal is bound to project past even the loudest rhythm section. No drummer can deny the full bodied wave of beauty which emits from this Paiste masterpiece. Whether beating quarter note hits into the crash or firing triplets into it's stingy bell, this is the cymbal for you.

Review: Now the 18", that´s a crash!!! it feels and sounds incredible, just perfect, and it´s also the perfect companion to my 18" power crash (a la Danny Carey)

Review: This crash is the absolute epitome of shimmer. Very bright, so bright I'm not too sure about the label Full Crash. Don't let the name or the weight fool you, as this cymbal can get LOUD. Beautiful, shimmering, bright and loud pretty much sums it up. Oh, that and I have never in my life heard a cymbal that sounds as good with mallets!
