I looked at these, the Fame Pro and the Roland VAD306, but I am so pleased i went for these.....I am a semi pro drummer, who gigs in local bars most weeks, and went from acoustic to Electronic, but visually it was lacking until I found these. They look fantastic, really nice quality, and just look the part. I decided to tweak the drums and customise it to my liking, and they now play and sound fantastic. If you are a serious pro drummer, on a stage with high stakes, then these are probably not for you, however if you want them to sound very decent, and look fantastic, then these will definitely fit the bill....so far no issues, with triggering, or playability, and for the money the dual zones, triple zones, choke etc are simply amazing....I cant stop playing them, thank you Thomann, and your customer support is excellent
