This sounds well played with the included mallets. I tried others more standard percussion mallets for vibraphone, but they are too heavy. I would prefer to play these with a softer mallet with longer stick. The sticks from the included mallets are good for children but too short for me. Its difficult to find the right softer mallet because if they are too heavy especially on th higher tones you hear more of the resonance box pounding on the wooden case. I put some soft material between them, but the high notes do not respond well, but they all sound well with the included mallets. The resonance chambers are plastic and they tend to loose the covers, but this can be fixed easely. It is clear they are intended to be put into hands, and sound better this way. I want to play them in the case because I use them like a bells, but the bells are too bright for what I want. The trophy resonator bell set can not be played very loud, so it will not cut through a loud brass instruments ensemble or similar.
