Yamaha HS740A vs Sonor 2000 Series hi-hat stand: which should I buy?

Published · Last updated

Answered by Roadie

Choose whichever feels better under your foot: with the Yamaha HS740A at £135 and the Sonor 2000 Series at £136, price barely separates them. The supplied details aren’t enough to name a winner on build or performance.

The Yamaha HS740A has the lower supplied best new price at £135, but the Sonor 2000 Series is only £1 more. That’s too small a gap to make price the deciding factor.

If you can, try both with your usual playing position. Check pedal response, stability and whether the stand fits comfortably around your other pedals; if you’ll be transporting it regularly, check how easily it packs down too.

There are no specifications or test results supplied here to establish which performs better. My practical advice: buy the one that feels right and fits your kit, rather than choosing on brand alone.
