Review: "When we got the chance to play the cymbals live with a band the thing that hit us first about the 17" and 19" crashes was the way they have a slightly foreshortened decay. It's not that they lack in attack, but although they are a medium thick weight, they speak quickly and then get out of the way a bit sooner than you expect.
They punctuate but don't overstay their welcome. This leads to the thought that they are not quite as powerful as, say, Paiste's CuSn8 2002s. On reflection though, we'd say the 2002s are more shrill, more pushy (they have always been associated with loud amplified music) where the Modern Essentials are glassier and glossier, you could say more silver-tongued.
Size-wise the 17" and 19" crashes fill the gaps between the already available even-sized crashes. In the old days you'd choose a 16" and 18", or an 18" and 20", and now you can get the in-betweeners, which is manna to many drummers. Both have a lush and warm tone, responding evenly from soft to medium loud."
