Review: "All five of the medium crashes contain a similar balance of brightness and musical depth. They open rapidly with typical B8 brilliance, while the note that follows sits harmoniously below, leading to a smooth decay. The 14" model is understandably the highest in pitch; the 16" and 17" sit well together as a pair, blending sympathetically; and the 18" model possesses an altogether deeper voice and stronger character.
The 20", meanwhile, would make a decent crash/ride - it's as happy pulsing out time as it is supplying a great wave of crash, and the wash that it produces isn't intrusive. We preferred the 20" medium crash to the 20" medium ride on account of its more rounded feel."
