After hesitating between HH Paiste PST5 14 'and Alpha Sound Edge or Rock 14' I had heard that the site Paiste, I opted for the PST 5 Because the price! But I'm pretty disappointed, as they say discription! Even the sound is quite far from its site (recorded sounds suspicious but hey, when you n'peux not try because no one qu'ya magos qu'al'matos in your wheat ...) but also in the closed position, you have a spectrum of harmonics whose height varies with the pressing force on the pedal. It's pretty manageable, but hey it is true that once drowned in the rhythmic bass guitar it goes. For the rest, opening the sound is open and semi hairy is not bad either. I think this model is a hinge between the cheap and high quality and it is better to type in the cheap and wait for the corn to go above and why not the 2002 range! Now this is only my opinion and I think in the same model of p'tits there may be lucky to fall on a series that does not sound too bad.
