Review: "The 13" and 14" ZBT hi-hats were the weakest entry in the new line. Though they produced strong chick, splash, and bark sounds when played with the foot, the same could not be said when I employed sticks. Hi-hat patterns sounded weak, shallow, and subdued, without the crispness required to properly project and articulate. Thought the ZBT hats are far better than entry level/student cymbals of years past, they fall short when compared to the performance level of the rest of the line."
