I'm really surprized of how good they sound not being any of the "high end" series...blew me away! The hardware is "high end", maybe not so much the Throne. The BD pedal & the Hi Hat are ok, but the cymbal stands, and the cymbals are very nice indeed...really high quality...
As of 28/8/18 I have bought a new bd pedal and hi-hat, there was just no way of adjusting the pedals supplied with the kit. Needed to adjust the angle of the beater on the bd ped. and the spring tension of the hi-hat... I'm going to get a new throne too! Can't get it high enough for my use...
As of September I bought other cymbals as the Paiste's were a bit too low end for my taste! As I said before the shell's are exceptional...
Really, this set, at that price, is a no brainer!!!
