Review: "Both 14" and 15" Light hats are requested alternatives to the already available standard-weight Artisan hats. They team a lightweight, crashy top cymbal with a medium weight bottom and thus make a lighter-weight pairing, suggesting lower volume and duskier tone. Since the sort of drummers in the market for Artisan hats are more likely to be working in dynamically sensitive musical settings this again makes sense.
Both pairs are extremely giving to the stick tip. This may be too sensitive for many, with just not enough gusto. The 14" pedalled sound is the most refined, featherweight marker, but open the cymbals up and shoulder them and you’re rewarded with the sweetest, purest sound. Still relatively quiet, but elegantly toned. Placing the 14" Elites and 14" Lights on two hi-hat stands next to one another confirms that the Lights are, well, lighter. Fractionally softer and deeper. The Elites have the edge - relatively brighter and sharper, though still remarkably subtle."
