Every major builder's kit in that range will be great. Go play some, and buy whatever has the best finish/hardware/stock heads/sexy posters/whatever. Personally, I think any birch kit will be a huge bargain, if you don't care about wood. Not that there's anything at all wrong with birch, it's simply a less expensive material.

well if your looking for something thats 2000 euros, i think thats more then 3000, US, so my suggestion would be whichever form of a starclassic, or a pearl reference would be even better (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Pearl-Reference-Rock-5Piece-Shell-Pack-with-Snare?sku=447536)......if the reference is to expensive then there are plenty of lower end birch or maple kits, and they all sound great, just a matter of personal taste. but if you just want some stuff to consider....try these

http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Mapex-Pro-M-5Piece-Rock-Drum-Set?sku=446903

and if you dont have to have 1 up 2 down, this would be my choice

If you've got that much scratch to spend, I would suggest Drum Workshop or Yamaha, that is if you really have that much to go with.

Sonor, no question...

you can probably get a nice SQ2 kit for that price.....or maybe even a DeLite
