Hello again, Ive been looking for a new shell pack for metal. having some trouble. I need a 5 piece, I already have a Dunnet classic steel snare though, so a 4 piece technically. My budget is about $2500. Thank you.

I think i could play metal with a 20'' bass drum, 10'',12'',14'' toms...
But then again, you might like a 22,10,12,16 or even 22,12,14,16 - You might also like bigger drums. Find out which sizes you want / material then it'd be easier.
But I think tama starclassic can serve the purpose. Maybe tama superstar hyperdrive aswell. Mapex Saturn, or Sonor 3007. Yamaha Tour Custom / recording custom, or stage custom. That was just a few, in different price ranges.
You got cymbals?

Yeah I was drooling over the StarClassic but I just do not know what to do.

Yeah, I just got Sabian AAX 14" metal hats, 18" APX solid crash, and a 20" AA Tight ride, and I will also get a smaller crash and a china for a full setup.

I plan on incorporating jazz into my metal drumming, dunno if that matters, thanks again.

Ill take those recommendations though, and go from there.
