Review: "The Empire cymbals are strikingly different to the Traditionals. Underneath, they are completely unlathed and covered instead in countless hammer marks. On top they are conventionally lathed from the edges to roughly half way into the centre at which point the lathing takes on much wider, open bands that continue all the way to the centre hole. The methods employed in making the cymbals, along with their extra weight, make them sound tighter and a good deal more aggressive than the Traditional models.
The two pairs of Empire hi-hats (13" and 14") provided are focused with a good level of attack that cuts through. Beneath all that brightness is a warmth that keeps the hats firmly on the refined side of raucous."
