Meinl's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The hi-hats feel more like medium-heavy than medium weight. The thing about a pure sound is that when you play the hats closed they inevitably sound rather dry, the damped clarity rendering them ticky and discrete. But you only have to open them up a bit and the full vivid roundness asserts itself.
Both pairs sizzle nicely when just fractionally opened, powerful enough and yet controlled. All the same, the 15" pair has a little more character by virtue of being fatter and more assertive.
Mounting the two rides alongside the 15" hats, the first impression is of their zingy, attacking brightness. Brightness is often no bad thing in a cymbal so long as it’s not jarring."
