Just picked up the 20" last week. Sounds awesome! Took me so long just to find this sound! A little sceptical on the overall projection for the style of music I play but it has no problem cutting through. Opens up real nice. Blends really good with my 22" K Dark Med. ride.

I just recently bought the 17". It works great as my primary crash and just has an amazing sound. This crash compliments my 17" A Custom ReZo Crash well. I would recommend this crash.

I own the 16 in. This cymbal absolutely amazing! I have owned this cymbal for almost five years now and it shows absolutely no signs of wear or use other than some finger smudges. This cymbal sounds amazing too! I would recomend this cymbal to anyone who can afford it. A great buy!

Emo kids, you will ove this cymbals. Great for thrashing and metal jamming. Has very little musical quality and is extremely bright, way too bright. When you first hit it, it has an annoying "goosh" sound that is so ugly!

I orignally was in the market for a new ride cymbal when I came across this cymbal. It's sound is all I could ever want out of a crash cymbal. I own the 20" and am now upgrading all my cymbals to the A customs. They have a very nice flex to them so they never sound too "rigid" or "cow-bell" like and the bell offers such an amazing warm yet crisp sound that blows my mind. These are the best cymbals period. Great for ANY style. Well worth the money.
