+1.......................The Roland TD series are my favorites. Unfortunately, they are also pretty expensive.
Cough, cough, biased, cough, cough.Personally, I like yamaha's module sounds better (I've owned both roland and yamaha)...and yamaha's are considerably cheaper in price.....

Definitely. I wouldn't spend that much money again on an electronic kit, but I am in a new phase of my drumming life now. My TD10 served me quite well for a long time. I took it back and forth to church every Sunday for about 12 years. Never had a problem.So is it safe to say the TD20SX is the best kit on the market?

I've played them both (TD-20SX, DTX 900) and I wouldn't trade my DTX for a TD-20SX...they both have their strenghts and weaknesses...my main problem with the 20 is price...even at $5000..it's overpriced IMO...
ya it is expensive, but it costs Roland around 4300 to actually make it if you can believe it. (estimated retail value is $7000-8000)

I reckon anything without the plasticy toms! The Roland TD20 fits that bill.
im another yamaha biased person hahaha. but realistically speaking
yamaha's interface and module are on par with roland.
yamaha's drum sound samples are much more realistic(they recorded their own real drums)
roland's pads beat the yamaha black rubber ones
BUT the new yamaha silicon pads beat rolands by far
yamaha hardware(esp tom clamps) are much more user friendly
roland's racks for the low end kits are much better
yamaha's highest end has it's hex rack which is alot better than rolands(you can even use it for your acoustic if you wanted!)
roland sets have more flexibility(if you want to have a crazy big kit or different kinds of pads/bass drum pads or weird set up)
yamaha has it's own hardware which is great.
