Review: Exactly what ROMAN said: powerful, cutting, loud, great for rock and metal. I compared this to my 2000 18" Power Crash and the 2002 version is higher-pitched, and in my opinion, it has a bit more cut.
- Review written by Stranjluv101
Review: "The 2002 Classic Power Crashes are heavier and slightly higher in pitch than their thin cousins. They had an explosive, bright, cutting impact that quickly opened up, with a wash that played out evenly through a long decay. The 16" Power Crash was very versatile, and would make a good general crash in any charged situation.
The 18"- and especially the 20"- Power Crashes had a lot to offer. As crashes that produce maximum impact and volume, one couldn't wish for more. But these two cymbals were also large and heavy enough to work effectively as rides. These bonus characteristics were more evident in the 20". Protracted riding on it built up a swell and crescendo that was a musically effective lead-in to the point at which I finally crashed on it.
The bells of the 18" and 20" cymbals were also interesting. They had a sound that was slightly separated from the body of the cymbal- a sort of tangy ring. Very distinctive."
