'''Review:''' 20" Paiste Sound Formula Dry Ride that is made from Paiste Signature Alloy and weighs about 2460 grams. In my opinion, this has much less "ping" to the sound and is a bit washier than most sig alloy rides, so it is "fairly wet" when it comes to wash but "fairly dry" when it comes to the tone of the ping. I really think it sounds good and I think it is crashable, though not in the "crash ride" range.  <br>

'''Review:''' "...Its Heavy sibling, on the other hand, is definitely a high-impact, high-volume model. It requires a whacking to bring out its characteristics: a pingy, thick-sounding stick attack, a high, clear pitch, and lots of gongy build-up. The bell sound is big and cutting, too. This ain't a lounge cymbal."<br>
