'''Review:''' "Take a heavy top cymbal with a large bell, add a very heavy flat bottom, and you have an unusual mix of textures. The weight of the pair gives them cutting articulation with a high, clear voice and a solid "chick" sound. The top has a strong bell sound and great stick definition. The bottom, when played separately, rings like a cup chime. You could play all over both of them to produce a variety of flavors. Yet, in combination, this hi-hat set is probably the most conventional-sounding component of the V-FX line. Sure, the cymbals are only 12" in diameter and the voice is high and strong,  but  they could also be played with  a  "normal" setup of comparably heavy cymbals."<br>

Review: "Take a heavy top cymbal with a large bell, add a very heavy flat bottom, and you have an unusual mix of textures. The weight of the pair gives them cutting articulation with a high, clear voice and a solid "chick" sound. The top has a strong bell sound and great stick definition. The bottom, when played separately, rings like a cup chime. You could play all over both of them to produce a variety of flavors. Yet, in combination, this hi-hat set is probably the most conventional-sounding component of the V-FX line. Sure, the cymbals are only 12" in diameter and the voice is high and strong, but they could also be played with a "normal" setup of comparably heavy cymbals."
