How to choose
Choose a size close to 14 inch for most styles, then pick a character from the available lines.
Beginner
If you are choosing your first hi-hats, the HCS Soundwave Hi-hats at 14 inches are a practical starting point with a clear, usable sound. Keep the clutch tension even so the top cymbal seats properly when closed.
Intermediate
If you want more tonal variety, the Classics Custom Dual Hi-hat and Byzance Extra Dry Medium Thin Hats give different levels of brightness and wash for different music styles. Practice foot control at varying pedal pressures to hear how each pair responds.
Expert
For a player refining tone across genres, the Byzance Dark 15 inch Hats and Byzance Vintage Sand Hi-hats offer darker, more complex textures suited to jazz and studio work. Check the hi-hat clutch and felt regularly so wear does not affect the chick sound.
