'''Review:''' "The two Powerful rides (20" and 22") are noticeably heavier cymbals. The extra weight means that they are higher in pitch and more penetrating. Progressing a cross the different zones of the Powerful rides brings similar responses, with the stick sound being harder and more isolated. The bells (especially on the 22") would register on any clang-o-meter."

Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Next out of the box were the 22" and 20" Power rides. I was impressed by the controlled sound of the 22". For a big cymbal, it doesn't have that ever-expanding wash that keeps building the more you play on it. The stick sound was clean and sharp without being sterile. The lathed edge has a lot to do with this touch of complexity, as it provides warmth and character, while the unlathed brilliant center maintains the volume and cut of a heavier cymbal. This ride's over- tones were deep and relatively warm for a B12 cymbal.

The bell sounds on the 20" and 22" rides were both very nice. Again, each was very clean and capable of being very loud, while not being irritating. The stick response on the bell and bow of the cymbals was great, too. I didn't feel like the stick was being thrown back at me, nor did I feel like the tip was sinking into the cymbal."
