'''Review:''' "The 20" Medium ride gives a clearly defined ping over supporting wash. Moving onto the bell, the sound focuses into a ripe metallic peal. There is a distinct clarity to the cymbal's response, which is further embellished by a lack of competing overtones."

'''Review:''' "Both M-Series rides are medium in weight and have fairly standard-size bells. The 20" was the rocker of the two. It had a solid and quick high- pitched attack that allowed for fast single-stroke rolls to be heard without being lost in overtones and wash. The smooth, controlled ride sound they emitted would likely record very well. And when put up against a couple of loud Fender Twin amps, the 20" held its own. The bell was loud, clear, and fun to play, especially on upbeats during funk tunes.

The 22" sounded big, dark, and mellow. Quick patterns got a little lost, and the bell sound was not as clear as that of the 20". But the cymbal's warmth made slower songs sound richer and more dramatic."
