Review: (This review is after they were redesigned.) "Finally, the 18" B8 Chinese cymbal is one of the stronger members of the new B8 family. With a pitch that's surprisingly low for an 18" cymbal, it does double duty as a rude-sounding ride cymbal (with plenty of "trashy" overtones), and as an aggressive crash. As with the B8 splash, the B8 Chinese would be an ideal compromise between musicality and economy for drummers who have only an occasional need for this type of cymbal. List price is $ 110."
