Review: "Starting with the ride cymbals, they are available in 20" and 22" models. They can best be described as having a very dry sound, yet they don't have that anvil-like clang that is often labeled "dry." Instead, you get a little more of a "click" sound from the stick, and there are just enough overtones to give it body. I preferred the 20" model in most situations, finding the 22" a bit gongy at times. (Although, when I played a set of these cymbals at the NAMM show at Chicago's McCormick Place, the 22" sounded better to me. So let the cymbal fit the room.)
