Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "To me, the 12" splash sounded more like a small crash. It had a lot more body and overtones than a typical splash cymbal would. And although it wasn’t particularly loud, it had some cutting power because of its pitch.
The 10" splash sounded pretty much like I expect a splash to sound, but the 8" model sounded too much like a toy. Its ultra-high pitch and “tin-canny” sound might be useful for special effects, but for the most mainstream splash sound, go for the 10" model."
