Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "14" hi-hats. This pair of cymbals was in keeping with the now standard format, having a heavier weight lower cymbal. The sound I'm afraid I found rather thin and brittle for my taste, but at the same time it was quite crisp and well defined. If you're looking for a very bright sound these hats would be worth a try, but don't expect anything too solid from them."
