Review: "The trash crash/hihat top was the one model I wasn’t as convinced about. On a stand, it sounds to me more like a big splash than anything overly trashy, not to say that’s a particularly bad thing.

I mean, there are trashy elements to it, you can hear them, and you can see the hammering and slightly squared profiling in the bow – which probably won’t show in the video but it is there all the same – and it certainly looks like it should be fairly trashy, but for me it missed the mark by not being trashy enough. I didn’t try it, but maybe this would make a good stack cymbal?

That said though, the sound it does make on its own I thought worked well enough and it certainly worked as a hihat top too. In that setting it did add a bit of crunchiness and dirtied the sound up a little."
