Review: "My pick of the litter, the Medium Swish China serves up some of the most full, lush, and complex cymbal sounds I've ever heard. We're talking high-butterfat, diet-be-damned, Ben & Jerry's-by-the-pint extravagance here. Like its Light Swish brothers, it excels as an alternative ride, but its heavier hammering and stronger upturn create a darker, more complex ride sound and a blooming, slightly higher-pitched China crash. It's also capable of considerably more volume and a wider variety of sounds, with greater high-end definition from the bell and a slightly more strident "baawsh" when struck hard on the edge. Even so, it never quite reaches the standard level of China trashiness that some drummers find obnoxious. This sultry beauty likely won't offend, but neither will it go unnoticed in your cymbal soundscape."
