Review: It's an extremely smooth and warm sounding crash. Although it has a fairly quick sustain, it has body and volume. This and the other K Dark Crash Thins are wonderful for blending in with the music when aggressive crashes are not needed.

Review: "I found the Dark Thins to be especially effective in low-volume situations where I wanted to be able to lay into a crash fairly well, but didn't necessarily want it to obliterate the rest of the music. For example, in certain acoustic settings, an ordinary 16" Dark Crash might have the pitch you want, but be too loud. If you substitute a regular 14" Dark Crash, the volume might be better but the pitch might be higher than you desire. The new Dark Thin Crashes solve that problem.
