Frequently Asked Questions

The Medium has a darker, more complex tone and slightly longer sustain than the Brilliant, which is brighter and more cutting.
While it can be played quietly, its inherent brightness and projection are better suited for mid-to-loud volumes.
A nylon tip stick will help retain the cymbal's warmth and prevent excessive harshness, particularly when playing at higher volumes.
