- I have this cymbal since September 2006. Superb finish, no complaints. It is not too heavy despite the size. The alloy is flexible it can bend slightly at the ends (be careful anyway !!!), which makes it easy to play live crash. It responds extremely well to all volumes and all types of attack.
It is powerful but not excessively. The two separate areas of the strikes can be used in crash and ride light.
The sound on the edge is located in the bass / midrange, with a pronounced but not sustain endless either.
The bell has a beautiful sound, enough medium and very effective response. One can draw many different sounds of the cymbal in the taming. No doubt, the quality and the K are there.

- I purchased this instrument to the House of drumkit Lille (super stores and super boss, great price. Magre Hi Christopher!) I had gone to buy a K dark thin crash 18 " but after trying, among other things, the K Custom Hybrid Crash 19 ", it was no longer subject to a different model!

- Although it's still quite expensive, the value for money, for me, can not be seen as excellent the excellence of this cymbal!

- After nearly six months of use, the choice I would do without hesitation. This cymbal is now, I'm sure, definitely part of my set!
