Review: "Available in 16", 17", 18", and 20" models, these crashes generate a lot of clean, bright energy. The 16" speaks without too much coaxing; larger models take a decent smack to send them into crash-sound territory. Much more like Paiste's 2002s than their Traditionals, the Power crashes' dominant frequencies are very centered. Each crash has a clearly recognizable pitch. Interestingly, the fundamental pitches of the 16", 18", and 20" Power crashes sent for review are a whole step apart. (A 17" model wasn't included in the review batch.) Paiste's reputation for consistency and attention to detail—along with the fact that the two Power splashes sent for review are also a whole step apart—suggest that this wasn't merely a coincidence. This diatonic relationship might encourage some quasi-melodic interplay among a group of Dimensions."
