Review: (This review is after they were redesigned.) "While the 14" model disappointed me in terms of being a crash, the 10" was exactly what I expected from a B8 cymbal that size. It didn't have quite the body of a comparable cast cymbal, but one doesn't buy a splash cymbal to get "body" anyway. It's an excellent splash for a beginning drummer, and would even suffice for a pro drummer who only has limited use for a splash and therefore doesn't want to invest too much money in one (but still wants a sound of reasonably good quality). List price is $60."
