Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The Metal crashes sounded similar to the Rock models but had higher pitches, a bit more volume, and a dirtier timbre. The 17" actually sounded smaller than I expected, while the 18" had a fast, flashy crash sound. The 19" and 20" Metal crashes were slower to respond but built up to a huge roar when used for crash/ride patterns."
