Review: "I must admit that I was apprehensive of the entire Reflector Heavy Full line prior to playing them, as my experience with "Heavy" or "Brilliant" cymbals has usually been less than positive in the past. I was pleasantly surprised to find that all of the cym- bals in this line are bright, responsive, and very clean sounding, without much of the "gonginess" that is sometimes present in thicker-bowed cymbals.
The Reflector Heavy Full hi-hats were the jewel of all of the instruments in this review, as they shined in every situation I put them in. I brought a selection of both the Crystal Thins and the Heavy Full cymbals for my drummer to use on a gig where I was playing steel drums, and he stated several times how much he enjoyed the Heavy Full hi-hats. He was impressed by how much control and nuance they delivered in spite their "heavy duty" designation.
Besides a strong foot "chick" and a surprisingly dark open sound, these hats also produced fully controllable foot sizzles and a tight, funky closed stick sound. I could see them performing really well in a variety of modern situations, including amplified or acoustic rock and funk."
