The 13" hats, by virtue of their size, had a tight-bodied tone without being clunky, which I felt could work great for pop and jazz bands. With the 14" hats, I was impressed by the constant, dry stream of noise they created, even when played closed. I had no trouble making myself heard when I played in an unmiked setting.

These are very versatile cymbals that would be right at home in any setting from a pop act to a medium-heavy rock band." <br> | The 13" hats, by virtue of their size, had a tight-bodied tone without being clunky, which I felt could work great for pop and jazz bands.
