The Korena take

The 20-inch K Sweet Crash is a thin Zildjian crash with a dark, complex character, fast response, and quick decay. A lathed top meets an unlathed bell: use the edge for a soft crash that clears quickly, or move to the bell for a more penetrating melodic accent with resonant overtones that last longer. It is voiced for rock, jazz, and orchestral work where nuanced color is part of the arrangement.
