Presentation
The Zildjian K-Series Mastersound 14" Top is clearly aimed at drummers looking for a hi-hat with more character, less sparkle but much more nuance. Here we find all the DNA of the K-Series: a dark, deep sound with a real wealth of harmonics, designed for expressive, lively playing.
This 14-inch top, made from B20 alloy and of medium thickness, remains supple under the baton while remaining precise. The hammering creates a more complex sound texture, with a less aggressive but more musical attack. Combined with the Mastersound bottom, the system ensures rapid air evacuation, giving a very responsive, short and well-defined 'chick' sound, even at low volume.
In playing situations, this type of hi-hat works particularly well in contexts where dynamics really count: modern jazz, neo-soul, funk, but also alternative rock or studio production. The sound is always controlled, never intrusive, with a more subdued presence that leaves room for the other instruments.
