Features:

The Vic Firth Theodor Milkov Series Marimba Mallets are designed to be exactly the same weight across the entire series, from the softest mallet to the hardest. This gives them an incredibly balanced feel, even when playing with different amounts of articulation, and also serves to keep the sound and response similar across a graduated set, only changing articulation. These mallets are heavy to encourage players to stay close to the keyboard - you don't have to raise your mallets very high to get a lot of response out of them, thanks to the extra weight! These mallets have a very warm sound, with almost no contact noise, and are very well-suited to transcriptions and classical-style pieces, as well as pieces that require a sensitive touch.
