Review: This ride will cut through a mix with ease. It has a tremendous amount of definition, with a decent bell. It is loud, but ultimately I decided to go with the 2002 22" Heavy Ride instead. The latter ride has similar definition, and a nice warm wash, which the power ride lacks. I found the power ride to be a bit too one-dimensional for my tastes, whereas I feel like the heavy ride is more versatile.

Review: "Power Ride is a new heavier cymbal which is only found in the 2002 range. They're only made in the larger sizes (20" and 22") at the moment and are very thick. There's very little discernible difference in sound from bell to outside edge; it is very distinct until you get to the last half-inch or so of the edge and would work equally well, I suspect, for aggressive Jazz or perhaps Foreigner-type Rock."

Review: "I have been a big fan of the Paiste 2002 series for a long time. I only had 2002 crash cymbals though. When I read about a drummer’s experience with the 2002 ride cymbal on a drum forum, I decided to obtain one and see (hear) if I liked it as well as he did. I did.
The 2002’s are a B8 alloy, meaning that they are 8% tin and 92% copper. The version I had for review was the Power Ride, which is very heavy at 3550 grams, almost 8 pounds. In the close-up photo below you can see that it is heavily hammered and lathed (the bell is lathed but not hammered). The ride sound delivers a distinct, but long lasting, ping (the main body of the ping lasts a long time, relatively), compared to a ride cymbal that has a very tight short ping, like a flat ride for example. This cymbal would work beautifully in any rock situation and big band. It has a bit too much ping for small jazz group (quintet). The bell is very musical.
All in all, a terrific cymbal. In fact, an executive from one of the other cymbal manufacturers who was visiting my lab told me he thought it was a beautiful ride cymbal. That says a lot."
