Frequently Asked Questions

The Heavy model is noticeably louder and has less sustain, offering a more immediate, impactful sound compared to the more washy and elongated feel of the Medium.
It’s a subtle but intentional tweak; the bell is slightly wider, contributing to a more focused and powerful initial attack and a cleaner, more defined wash.
Brilliant finishes require more frequent cleaning to maintain their shine; expect to use a cymbal cleaner more often than with darker finishes to prevent build-up.
