One word: dynamic.
Big band? Use it for over-the-top comping to pull the audience out of their thoughts during a trombone solo. Emo? Ride it full Moeller to drown out your vocalist when they stop singing ironically and go up an octave. Jazz drummer? Who needs a ride, this shimmering beauty is 18". Thrash metal? No, you don't have too many cymbals. This would look great next to your perforated double-notched china.
Sab-Ax 18" Bright Crash. It's a journey.
