14" K-Series Light Hi-Hat : cutting and great clarity

8 years ago

I was using a set of ancient paiste hats with chunks missing so i was well overdue an upgrade.

Getting the K Lights was a serious, serious upgrade.

The top and bottom hats are different weights so you get a really beautiful dark sound but with it's own brightness on top. I play in a band where dynamics are key and the K lights can do it all. they sound gorgeous closed and played lightly but they can also hold their own when it gets loud on stage and offer a great slushy sound when half open.

I was originally looking at getting the K Lights in the 13" but I'm glad i went for the 14. They give that extra bit of volume that I need for playing in bands but can also be controlled when I'm rehearsing/practicing.

Superb hats.
