Detail 01
Color Sound coating
The coating produces a slightly drier sound, a more focused attack, and somewhat shorter sustain.

Independent shopping perspective
Paiste’s purple 14-inch Color Sound 900 Sound Edge hi-hats pair a bright, crisp voice with a notably quick response. Closed patterns retain a clear, defined stick sound, while opening the hats brings an energetic presence designed to cut through the mix. The color coating shifts the response toward a slightly drier, more focused attack and trims sustain somewhat. A medium top over a medium-heavy bottom gives this pair its stated configuration.
