16-inch pair
Supplies two cymbals as a 16-inch hi-hat set.

Independent shopping perspective
The 16-inch Paiste 2002 Big Beat hi-hat pair carries the Black Label Big Beat approach into a larger format. Its sound is described with the clarity and strength associated with 2002 Alloy, then broadened with added warmth, depth, and complexity. The result is a voluminous voice that avoids an overly aggressive character, with controllable decay for live or studio use. A slightly darkened, semi-matted finish and distinctive hammering separate its appearance from standard 2002 presentation.
