Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "Next up are the three pairs - 10", 14" and 16" - of Swiss Hats, which combine brass bottoms with bronze tops.
Although there is a minor fashion towards bigger hats, the 16" pair was less successful for us. Closed they clack quite loudly with a loose dustbin lid effect. Shouldered they are messy - we couldn't get a clean 'shoop'.
In passing, we'd suggest you could invert these pairs, or use them separately as two crashes. The 16" brass bottom hat is toppier with less presence than its bronze partner which is warmer and fuller. And we actually preferred this 16" bronze top hat to the 16" Swiss Thin Crash."
