Meinl Pure Alloy 18" Medium Crash 5-stars Reviews
The best 18" crash I've ever used
I'm very happy with this crash! I bought it in pair with 20" crash and they sounds amazing together. It has a kind of bright and a dark tone which fits multiple genres. So I'm pretty satisfied with it!
Amazing main crash
So basically I use this as my 'bread and butter' crash. You really get amazing value for the price. It's B12 but it sounds great. I haven't noticed any particular drawbacks. If you are looking for a standard all purpose 18 ''crash sound, this is the way to go.
Meinl Pure Joy
This 18" inch crash is a real pleasure for the ears. Very versatile, great and consistent tone at all playing volumes. The bell has a nice definition and if you need/want it can be eventually played just like ride articulation. I've read many reviews that tend to say that this is the Meinl version of Paiste 2002. I don't agree, really. I know 2002 very well and Pure Alloy have their own "character" and a great versatility in many situations.
