I am new users to this forum and a moderate drummer and I need your help determining which set is better. I had the Yamaha stage Custom first and I like the set accept how high the toms sing, I was using the Remo black suede heads with tone rings and it helped the sound a lot. Played a couple of gigs and church they were quick setup but I ened up selling the kit to a church in need. I went and purchased the Pearl Vision VB825/B black which was a little cheaper but the guy at Guitarcenter told me that if I wanted a deeper tone in my drum I need bigger drums so I went with the pearl which is 12,13,16, I have the black suede heads again with an Aquarian Super Kick 2 drum head. Here my problem and I know this seems strange but I don't like the setup of the Peal. With using the Pearl Intergrated susupension system for the toms and having to use the drum key and lever adjustment I can't find a setup for the toms that I like. I feel like I have to set the drums so high to keep them flat that I need a higher drumseat but I did not need that with the Yamaha. With the Yamaha it was very easy to setup things up, with the movable tom it was so easy to setup. Here is my probel is it I am not giving myself a chance to get use to Pearl or was the Yamaha just a better set. I am considerning taking taking the pearl back have not played on it yet, just put the heads on, not even tuned them yet. My equipment has to sound right and look right and something about this pearl looks odd setup. I have searched for reviews on the set but can't find any. At the same time I think the set is going to sound good so I am torn can you help me make some sense of this madness?
