'''Review:''' "Setting the Splash Stacks up requires a cymbal stand with a generous threaded top and felts that err on the slender side due to the gap between the two components, despite the inverted bell of the bottom cymbal. Once in place they waste little time in delivering short, sharp slices of trashiness.<br> Somewhere between a choked splash and a processed hi-hat sound - albeit with their own individual twist - they reward pretty much any kind of sticking, from single or multiple accents through to patterns and beats. Tightening them down chokes the already instant decay even further; loosening them off finds a pleasing after buzz remaining for a few nanoseconds after the main note, but these type of cymbals are all about the whiplash-quick response. Choosing a favourite is difficult as both pairs work together really well, particularly for hand-to-hand patterns and accented fills." <br>

Review: "Setting the Splash Stacks up requires a cymbal stand with a generous threaded top and felts that err on the slender side due to the gap between the two components, despite the inverted bell of the bottom cymbal. Once in place they waste little time in delivering short, sharp slices of trashiness.
Somewhere between a choked splash and a processed hi-hat sound - albeit with their own individual twist - they reward pretty much any kind of sticking, from single or multiple accents through to patterns and beats. Tightening them down chokes the already instant decay even further; loosening them off finds a pleasing after buzz remaining for a few nanoseconds after the main note, but these type of cymbals are all about the whiplash-quick response. Choosing a favourite is difficult as both pairs work together really well, particularly for hand-to-hand patterns and accented fills."
