Four stars instead of five though because it mounts to the cymbal stand with a small screw. It would be much better if it were tapped and screwed down on the post, that way there would be no chance of it damaging the threads on your stand.

Easy to attach to a cymbal stand, and the nut stays tight instead of slowly loosening like some wingnuts. It's fine with a loud china if your only using it for crashing. I have a vintage Zildjian Pang china-type cymbal that I tried with this recently, and while it's fine for crashing, there is some vibration noise when using mallets or using the cymbal as a ride (this Pang sounds great as a ride!) It's probably not detectable to someone ten feet away, but it's annoying. Maybe Aquarian should consider adding a felt core to help dampen the noise...
Overall, these are great for china cymbals and/or rides that get hit hard. Probably helps prevent damage...
Note: If you're playing new Zildjian cymbals, you're probably going to crack them no matter what. They're pretty, but even if they don't sound like crap, they will fall apart. They don't make them like they used to. Buy used, vintage gear for half the price!
