Review: "The 14" hi-hats come as a matched pair, with the bottom cymbal slightly heavier and consequently higher-pitched than the top. This is fairly standard procedure, but all the same I was pleased at the marked difference in tone between the two, which in practice makes them highly usable. Bringing the hi-hats together smartly with the foot creates a well-defined and fairly sharp "chip". Lacking a little in power, perhaps, but the quality of the sound can't really be faulted. Played with sticks, the top cymbal is sharp and responsive with little of the dissipating dullness that cheap cymbals so often suffer from."
