Let me just say, I never thought I'd be enamored with a pair of hi hats. After using new beats and quick beats for years, I thought just a clean, generic hi hat sound was good enough. And it is, but why be good enough when you can be better? I actually bought these after only hearing them on the Paiste website, just to take a chance. I am blown away, really! I've been gigging with these hats for a couple months now and every time I lay a stick into them or splash them around with my foot, I get excited. They are very versatile--plenty of cut and volume, but like the rest of the Twenty series (and like Paiste is known for), they are somehow glassy and warm at the same time. If you want hi-hats that cut enough for any application, but at the same time are as warm as any favorite analog recording, try these out. I'm not 100% sold on my Paiste switch yet, but these hats are DEFINITELY keepers.

I am so pleased with these cybals. As soon as i played them I knew I had to have them. I play several genres of music such as rock, jazz, blues, pop, and even punk, these hi-hats work with them all. The volume range and crispness of these hats are unmatched in my opinion! Littly pricy but buy these if you want an all around great pair of hi-hats, they are worth it!

It was finally time to buy a new pair of hats after literally destroying my starter kit ones ($25 Proformance hats) so I was checking out the Paiste line and the sales guy recommended these and said these we're the best he'd ever used so I tryed them and needless to say, I was amazed and bought them. Trust me, it's worth the hefty price.
