Paiste's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: I think "smooth" only touches the surface when it comes to describing these hi-hats. I'd also add "buttery", "warm", and "expressive".
I believe in these cymbals so much that if I were to make a list of the top 5 hi-hats I've ever heard, recorded or live, these 15s would appear without a second thought.
They have a refined sound and respond well to even the lightest of stickings.
