Meinl Cymbals Low Volume Hihats — 14" HCS Quiet Practice Hi Hats for Drums | Durable Brass Alloy, Silent Tone for Practice Anywhere

PLAY AT CONVERSATION LEVEL. Meinl HCS Practice Cymbals give you real cymbal feel and tone at a fraction of the volume; practice full out any time of day in just about any space without disturbing people around you

WHY IT MATTERS. you get to practice more so you improve faster; plus, HCS Practice Cymbals feel like a real setup, so your muscle memory won't be out of touch when you switch to your main kit

REALITY CHECK. we make these with the same durable brass alloy as our standard HCS cymbals so you get an enjoyable, musical tone from edge to bell; other companies use cheaper alloys like stainless steel (also made with stainless: pots and pans)

HOW IT WORKS. our hole pattern knocks off weight and interrupts vibration through the brass to bring volume down without shortchanging tone quality; it boils down to less cymbal material—> less noise—> NOT a lesser tone

ONE TAKEAWAY. these play like real cymbals with significantly reduced volume, but they aren't made to be pin drop silent; they do let you fully engage during practice without terrorizing your dog or neighbors with sound
