Review: "At the beginning of this review, I mentioned the fact that sometimes a musical instrument can so thoroughly impress you that it upsets certain beliefs you’ve held for a very long time. For me, the 20″ and 21″ Medium Rides did just that.
For many years, I’ve used dark, trashy rides in every situation I could, and I assumed most cymbals with anything more than a medium-thin weight would be outside my wheelhouse. The Medium Rides completely changed my thinking about weight and profile, forcing me to re-evaluate what I really needed in a cymbal.
Clean and clear, but not without plenty of character, the Medium Rides had so much to offer. Each kind of split the difference between ping and click, producing a beautiful attack under every hit. Controllable, dynamic, and moderate enough to support any instrument, these rides were superb in every room and every setting.
To me, the Medium Rides exemplify the idea of the Masters Collection: simultaneously bright, modern, dark, and traditional. I found myself returning to each model again and again because they gave me literally everything I could have asked for. From their broad, roiling crash to their sparkling, crystalline sticking, these rides were the glue of the entire series.
If I had to pick one cymbal from the Masters Collection to keep in my bag for the rest of my life, it would undoubtedly be one of the Mediums (which of the two, however, I would be hard pressed to decide)."
