Reviews
"The 14" medium hi-hat can get down to business more vigorously, it is livelier in the attack and also delivers a certain sharpness with a rather crisp attack. When played closed, the attack is followed by a short and rich sustain with a sound depth, so that this hi-hat can definitely be described as powerful. When the hats are slightly open, a strong noise develops, which produces very rich mids, but also reflects the certain sharpness from the overtones of the attack in the sustain. The chick sound when stepping is quite full and compact." - Ralf Mikolajczak
"The 14" hi-hats had just about everything the 13" models didn't. They had much more spread and musicality than their smaller siblings. Sweet and sibilant, they offered a lovely jazz
character, yet could speak dynamically for those funk barks." - Rick Van Horn
"The medium hi-hats are strong when played on the shoulder, but they also demonstrate great washiness when opening up. I’d suggest getting these if you want something versatile. You could use these for most styles of music, and they’d work wonderfully." - Brett Clur
