The Zildjian A 16" Rock Crash brings together favorable elements for louder genres like a medium-heavy weight for added bite and projection, an enlarged bell to boost the volume, and a wider lathing for a presence that jumps out front and leaves guitars in its wake. Throaty yet controlled thanks to its size, this 16" rendition provides a solid punch while remaining controllable. In addition, the added weight makes playing sharper accents on the bell or even riding on the bow a possibility.
