Review: "Out of the lot, my favourite cymbals are the 14” hi hats. These hi hat cymbals are crisp, clean and defined. They offer a good ‘chick’ sound when closed tight with the foot. They also have an aggressive roar when played open."

Review written by Gideon Waxman ("Meinl HCS Review", drumhelper.com, February 23, 2023)

Review: "The hats produce some surprises too. All the usual tricks are feasible and readily available, with actions such as half-open, pedalling with the 'chick' sound, striking while closed and then opening rapidly - it's all there. There is a slight underlying harmonic going on beneath each individual stick strike, but this is lost when adding drums."
