Review: "Given their name and weight, I expected the Crunch Hats to sound heavy and thick, but that was not the case. I was pleasantly surprised by that fact that while their weight gave them a high and clear sound, they also had a sweet sibilance, plus great stick response.
The 14" hats had a nice, clear voice, with lots of complexity to the overtones. The 15" pair had the cut and harmonics of their smaller siblings, but with a difference. The only way I can describe the sound is that it was lower and more “mature.” They sounded like big band cymbals, inspiring me to play all over their surface. I could happily use the 14"s for accents and everyday gigs, but the 15"s gave the hi-hat the feeling of being more of a separate instrument that I might want to solo on.
The top cymbal on each pair had the Sonic Texture treatment on both sides. The upper surface was all one texture, while the underside had irregular lines of lathing. The bottom cymbal was the heavier of the two, and had a similar look. The only difference was that it had very small areas that looked unfinished."
