'''Review:''' "We felt the hi-hats were also a little muted when closed. The 14" Mediums sounded quite soft, deep and not particularly loud.

'''Review:''' "My personal hi-hat tastes favor sloshy, open sounds. I quickly learned, though, that both the 14" ($364) and 15" ($420) Classics Custom Medium hi-hats sounded best when played tightly closed. The more open I held them, the more static-like the wash became, which I felt diminished the hats' musicality. Their tinny tonality made for a short, glossy stick sound that kept most every hit on an even keel. This proved to be great for consistency but not so beneficial for hi-hat patterns with a lot of inner dynamics."
