I tried a few of each, and the Dark Crisp wasn't as nice as my Dark Energy Mark 2 and was actually a bit thinner sounding. The Dark Ride knocked my socks off, and the Dark Crash Ride is really nice. I finally got a chance to really play them yesterday, and I swear these cymbals have some juju in them. I was playing shit in the vein of Bill Stewart like nobody's business! (well, in my head anyway)
Check these cymbals out when you get a chance. I think they would work well in ANY setup (as long as you're going for a dark and dirty jazzy thing).
Those are definitely the best of the Masters cymbals, IMO - great cymbals...
