Review: "Both of these rides had defined bow sounds and sufficiently pronounced bells.

The medium was a little more mild than the heavy ride, which you’d expect, but they shared similar overall qualities. They were also both quite crashable without being overly clangy.

I liked the heavy ride, but personally felt it could possibly have been even a little bit heavier in weight."

Review: "The Heavy Ride cymbals are very defined but they grow a lot (especially the 22"); therefore, it's a type of cymbal that you need to learn to control."
