Review: "Finally, we come to the hi-hats. The characteristics of Alphas that made me love the 16" Thin Crash did not serve as well on the 14" Medium Hi-Hats. Their relative thinness and light weight kept them from producing a satisfactory chick sound when the hi-hat was closed. On the other hand, they responded well to light sticking, and choked very quickly. So they might be excellent choices for mellow jazz work or for funky patterns."
