'''Review''': "This thin, small-bell cymbal has a high pitch and quick response, as well as a quick decay. But its 17" diameter also gives it more body than is typical from a cymbal with such a high pitch. Imagine the response of a splash with the body of a crash, and you'll get the idea. The Brilliant version has a slightly narrower spread of overtones, but the difference between the Brilliant and regular version is slight, and they sound virtually identical in the context of a full band." <br> | '''Review''': "This thin, small-bell cymbal has a high pitch and quick response, as well as a quick decay.
