Review: "The Rock and Medium rides were perfect sonic matches for the hi-hats. The Medium version was created to be a general-purpose ride. It exhibited great articulation, with a hint of dryness, a medium spread, and strong projection. Playing the bell with the tip of the stick didn't bring out quite everything that I wanted, but when I used the shoulder of the stick it cut through with a nice clang.
