Unlike SURORBITE (see above), I use the hi-hat for 3 years and I find it absolutely ... INFERNO! A good big Z below, a classic K ("normal" if you prfrez) above is simply one of the best hi-hat I know if you need a much tchick prcis, play nuanced, gently or not, oatmeal wide open grave! L you will see the intrt bottom of the Z, which dlivre fat, consistency and volume. I tried the SABIAN (I will not give MODEL, all fawn over j'achterai anything about them is fragile and not ring top), the Zildjian and paiste. In each of these two excellent brands charley (K, K Custom, dark or not to Zildjian, Paiste Signature and 2002) but I believe any rise to the level of excellence of the famous couple K / Z for which is the versatility!
