'''Review:''' "Both the medium light ride and the light ride exhibited a lush, golden spread, and both (especially the light ride) retained their stick articulation best with smaller-tipped sticks; larger tips accelerated their overtone buildup. Predictably, nylon tips brought out more high frequencies, and thus raised the speed/dynamic thresh-hold at which the harmonic undertow swallowed up the attack sound. Because this threshold is quite low in the light ride, I would recommend it only for lower-volume live playing, or for the studio, where its definition could be picked up even amidst a louder band's volume and/or the cymbal's own wash generated by harder playing." <br>
