'''Review:''' "The hi-hats are beautiful. The 14”s have a wonderful, almost perfect ‘shurp’ when opened and a musical ‘chick’ with played with either foot or stick. The 15”s, as expected, have a wider sound and lower pitch with a little less definition overall, but are really nice to leave a little open for a dry slushy sound. The natural finish takes away that real cutting, bright frequency that can be so off putting – particularly in the studio. Neither size are particularly loud though, and do require a little heavy handedness if you want volume. This might be just what some players are after though, because you can be really relaxed with your velocities."
