Default Acrylic Drum options

Can anyone reccommend a good acrylic drum kit for under 1000 Euro? I love the sound of Acrylics, I'd go for a Kirchhoff If they were less expensive. I also hear good things about the crush acrylic kits. What do you guys think?

I know the Euro is pretty weak compared to GBP, but I'd be hunting something like this:

It's a beast. Actually has a little tap on this exact kit today and was very impressed.

I don't know a whole lot about them, but I will say those Crush acrylics look sweet IMO.

Have you ever heard of Volume Drums http://www.volumedrums.com/? Since you mentioned Euro I guess you live in Europe, and I am quite sure Volume Drums would send their kit all over Europe.

I played them and they are simply fantastic! Very different from, say, the Vistalites: really lightweight, incredible tuning range, esthetically very appealing and very correctly priced. Have a look at their videos, I am quite sure you will be impressed.

I have an order in for a Crush Acrylic
I heard them in a drum shop & love the way they sound.

I'll gladly post pics as soon as I get my new toys.
