Review: These are some sloshy, BIG sounding hats of which Steve Jordan might approve! Now, if you like wash, these do that great, but you have to keep in mind that you lose responsivity having cymbals this big. (If you're going to play the fast, 16th note pattern in "Tom Sawyer", these will not work for you.) Also, once you get these going, it takes a bit of effort to get them to quiet down! The whole time I played them, I never got the impression that these sounded "tight". These had a full sound even when closed tightly. These have a pleasant sound, though, and sounded nice when played with the foot pedal as well.

Review: "If you’re a fan of that funky, sloshy hi-hat sound that studio great Steve Jordan often uses, or if you’re looking to achieve a down-tuned hip-hop vibe, then check out the 16" Medium Light hi-hats. These oversized plates are size-matched to give you a solid, playable hi-hat sound, despite their gigantic proportions. We found that the stick sound on these hats was more pronounced and the foot chick was much cleaner than what you would achieve by pairing up two crash cymbals. It was also a lot of fun exploring the extra sounds that were available by playing on various parts of the surface area, as well as by sloshing them with the foot.
We wouldn’t recommend using these hats on every gig, as their low pitch and slow response time don’t allow for quick articulations and barking accents. But if you play a lot of laid-back funk/blues/rock grooves and want to pull your feel even further behind the beat, these will certainly help."
