Review: "In all of the years I’ve been doing these reviews, there’s definitely been times when it’s been painful to say goodbye to things when I have to give them back. This is another one of these times.

It’s not that I didn’t particularly enjoy all three examples of the Complex line because I did – and I would have loved to have kept all of them – but these hi hats are going to be especially hard to give back.

For me, these hi hats are almost perfect: they’re comfortable to play – meaning they’re not too heavy or clunky – they have a lovely, gentle, ‘fits right into the track’ sound which blends in without the need to really EQ it. They just work. I think these are some of my favourite hi hats of the last few years and given how these sound, I would have loved to have also tried the 15s with a slightly lower pitch.

These B20 hi hats are available in 14 and 15” sizes."
