Sabian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 14" Legacy hats are dry, dark, and thin-sounding, with loose, warm stick articulation. The top cymbal is fairly thin and light, while the bottom hat is a little heavier. These are not crisp-sounding hats, but keep in mind that the entire Legacy line is designed to have a warm, subtle sound. The amazing— and very positive— aspect of these hats is that they have a fat, rich “chick” when played with the hi-hat pedal. The warm tone of the hats fits perfectly with the rest of the cymbals."

Review: "The 14" hi-hats have a heavy bottom and a light top. The latter results in a closed sound which we found verging on the lacklustre, lacking in cut. Likewise, the pedalled 'chick' sound is soft-tinged and relatively quiet. In fact, we had to be extra careful to set a sharp angle on the bottom cymbal in order to get enough of a pedalled clash between the two cymbals to hear anything at all. That's the price you pay for the dark sound.

As usual though, when opened up and played with the shoulder of the stick there's a much louder, but still warm, burst of sound."
