Sound character: Vivid, massive, deep. Wide range, clean mix. Heavy feel. Very strong, bright ping over a big, deep wash. Piercing, energetic bell. Loud ride with cutting power for high-volume settings.

While Color Sound 900 features essentially the same sound and function as the 900 Series, the color coating causes a slightly drier sound, shortens the sustain a bit, and results in a more focused attack.
