Review: "The hats were in the "medium/heavy" range (with the bottom cymbal being heavier, as usual). They produced a nice, full-bodied tone with plenty of projection. Even though they're ostensibly for studio use, they would also work fine in a live application for all but the most hardcore headbanging popular music. While they were not as "fast" as some lighter cymbals, they had a good response and a solid "chick" sound. One interesting aspect was that the pitch wasn't as high as you might expect from cymbals of this weight. This is a matter of personal taste, of course, but I considered this a plus in that it gave them a more universal appeal than some of the very bright "one-note" hats you occasionally encounter. All in all, this was a very nice pair of hi-hats, with wide-ranging applications for a variety of musical siuations. "
