'''Review:''' These are some big, beefy-sounding hats. They are bright, and taking the weights into consideration, are pretty quick and precise. (Again, I stress <i>for their size</i>.) The Alpha series really had some underrated models, and this is another one. They have strong stick definition when played closed, fat and sloshy when played open. They sound great when using the foot pedal too!<br>

Review written by Martin Patmos ("Paiste's Redesigned Alpha Cymbals - Updated Looks And Sound", Modern Drummer, September 2006, p. 35)

Review: These are some big, beefy-sounding hats. They are bright, and taking the weights into consideration, are pretty quick and precise. (Again, I stress for their size.) The Alpha series really had some underrated models, and this is another one. They have strong stick definition when played closed, fat and sloshy when played open. They sound great when using the foot pedal too!
