'''Review:''' "The hi-hats also come with an 8" brass cymbal, and  the same rules apply. You can use the hats with or without the 8"splash. The  bottom  hi-hat  contains  jingles, which  add  a  tambourine type of effect. I personally would have preferred a few more jingles; at times I thought the jingle effect got lost. I found the Safari hats a bit too trashy to use as the main hi-hats  in  my acoustic  setup. But  more  and  more  drummers  are adding  a  second  set  of  hats  to their  kits,  and  I’d  certainly  recommend  checking  these  out  for  that  purpose. And when  I applied  them  to my  electronic  setup,  they  really came  alive, blending  right  in  with  some  of  my  non traditional-sounding kits."

'''Review:''' "The Safari Crash has a quick decay, so it’s perfect for adding white-noise effects. This comes in handy when you’re playing along to loops or programmed beats. Again, I liked the way it sounded when I added it to my electronic setup. It gave me an “almost” real-sounding cymbal to combine with my electronic ones. And of course I had the option to get different sounds by adding the 8" splash."
