Forged from high-quality B20 bronze and shaped by hand hammering for intricate response, this cymbal stands out for its instant attack and swift, smoky decay. Within the Stratus Dry family, engineering is focused on today's players, delivering a focused, mix-ready voice that fits into any setup. Sabian's design ensures the Stratus Dry Crash 20 projects clearly but never overpowers, making it a standout for contemporary jazz, progressive music, and studio work. This cymbal's blend of raw and traditional surfaces provides a visual distinction paired with nuanced sound control. The YRS-23 achieves a refined, textured crash with low overtones and clear stick definition.

Standout Features for Demanding Drummers

Among its key features, this model unites hand-hammered B20 bronze alloy with raw and traditional surface finishes for sonic depth. Such construction results in a low, trash-tinged profile with heightened articulation and quick, breathy response. Extra-heavy hammering imparts additional complexity, but never excessive sustain, supporting crisp accents and smoky textures for every stroke.

Material Quality and Craftsmanship

In the quest for refined sound, both material choice and production play a central role. Because it is hand-hammered, the B20 alloy achieves advanced complexity and heightened sensitivity for expressive play.

• Alloy: B20 — balances warmth, durability, and harmonic depth for studio and live use.
• Put to use through a hand-hammered production method, each crash takes on unique tonal personality and musical nuance.
• Thickness: Thin — allows for rapid response, sensitive dynamics, and effortless crash accents.

Surface Finish and Sonic Character

Raw surfaces combined with classic lathing bring both look and tonal complexity to the crash. Here, finish has a decisive impact on stick definition and sound projection overall.

• Finish: Raw, Traditional — the raw top surface delivers drier, more controlled attacks while the traditional underside maintains musical openness.
• Modern and vintage kits alike benefit from the crash's dramatic visual design.
• Balanced texture means clarity is preserved in both live and recorded settings.
