Review: "Confession time: I'm a big fan of 24" rides, so I couldn't wait to check out the 24" K Light model. At just over 7 pounds, with fine lathing over big hammer marks, this is a class-looking K. The sound is very K too, with with an excellent mix of definition spread, and tone, along with a bit of trash. Playing towards the edge creates a slight wobble and some "tah" character to the sound. Playing midway up the bow produces more "tang".
The K Light ride responded quickly, despite its 24" size. But what was really noticeable was the character of the spread: a wide cushion of slightly dark, round overtones. And yet the k Light ride proved quite controllable, with a nice dynamic range that could be reined in fairly easily. And when it came time for accents, this cymbal's wide-open crash sound and slightly small, integrated bell added lots of nuance."
