Review: "Certain limitations in the acoustic characteristics of brass were very apparent in all of the C6000 models. But some of these might actually prove to be advantages, depending on your application. The 16" crash is a prime example. It was quite thin, and if I only tapped on it with a stick I got virtually no sound at all. But if I really whacked it, it produced a dark yet explosive crash sound which died almost instantly. So while this would certainly not be a crash cymbal for an unmiked live performance almost anywhere, it just might be a killer crash for either home or professional recording applications. And getting back to the more traditional "student" application, a crash like this might get on Mom's, Dad's, and the neighbors' nerves a lot less than one that was more "musical" and penetrating."
