Review: "Two sets of hi-hats make their ReZo debut in 14" and 15" sizes. The bottom cymbals have six thumb-sized semi-circle cutouts spaced around the edge to enable air to escape. The 14" pair possesses a crisp and musical blend of high frequencies. Wonderfully responsive when played softly, they are also aggressive at the louder end of the scale."

Review: "The first thing I noticed about the ReZo hi-hats was that there are small U-shaped cutouts around the edge of the bottom cymbal. Zildjian used this technique on A hats in the '60s, and the company brought it back especially for the ReZos. There was no air lock when I played the hats with my foot, proving the cutout method to be quite effective.
I usually find 15" hi-hats to be hard to control, but the ReZo 15s ($666) were comfortable to push with a stick and chick with the foot. They felt like pair of heavy 14s but sounded like 15s. The 14" hats ($604) had a sharp attack, a light and crisp open sound, and a quick response, making them feel like 13s while sounding like 14s. The large bell on each pair of hi-hats made for a sizable target and offered a rewardingly bright voice to toy around with. The purpose of the larger bell is to increase volume. I felt the combination of a large bell and U-shaped air-release cutouts rounded out the cymbals' volume and overall sound very nicely."
