Istanbul Agop's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "On the other hand, the 14" hi-hats had just about everything the 13" models didn't. They were designated as "Matched," which the Istanbul Agop price list shows as being medium weight. Yet 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 I mentioned. Admittedly, their chick sound was not as pronounced as that of the 13"s, but it was more than sufficient. Overall, I found this pair to be the more impressive of the two."
