Turkish Cymbals 14" Crash

A 14-inch crash is the fastest accent cymbal on the kit: it responds with virtually no delay, delivers a bright, compact attack and decays so quickly that even the densest fills stay clean. Sonically it sits right between a splash and a classic crash. Every cymbal at Cymballand is hand-hammered and lathed in Istanbul from pure B20 bronze (80% copper, 20% tin) – so every 14" carries its own sonic signature.

Series in this size

In 14 inches, our range goes from the rock-ready Rock Beat with its brilliant finish, via the adaptable all-rounder Studio, to the bright, explosive Bee. Effect lovers reach for the trashy Clatter or the spiral-cut Comet; the dry, percussive Soundscape Atacama Arid comes from Jarrod Cagwin's signature line. For quiet practice there's the perforated FX Silence, while the brilliant Sirius sets sparkling accents. You'll find more sizes in our crash cymbals overview.

What a 14-inch crash is made for

Thanks to its small diameter, a 14" is perfect for fast accents in funk, fusion and pop, as a third crash in complex setups, or as the base of a stack. It cuts brightly through the mix without taking up space – ideal for compact club and studio setups, too.
