Review: "The top cymbal is medium weight with a raw bell; the bottom is heavier and flat. Both cymbals are hand hammered, with raw-finish bands attractively surrounding a central band of etched gold.

The fact the bottom cymbals are so heavy makes the Nanos surprisingly full-bodied, with plenty of volume and zing. The 9" pair is darker, thicker and warmer than the 7". The 9" open sound is more of a 'tahh' than a 'tiss', while the closed sound is crisp. The 7" pair is quite different - open they emit a sort of high-pitched scream, the result of the bell taking up most of the top cymbal.

Be careful where you position your clutch wing nut - if your aim's not true, you'll hit that as often as the cymbal."
