Hello, My wife (then girlfriend) bought a DTXplorer set in probably 2004. Now, our son is 10 years old and has been playing them for the past year or so. So far the upgrades I have done are:
DTX502 module
TP100 3 zone snare
PCY100 3 zone crash w/choke.
Double kick pedal (not much use yet haha!)
Alto TS212 12" PA speaker
I am not really a drummer, and he is just learning. So it seems the module and upgraded snare went a long way for sensitivity and sound quality. I wonder what would help him out more down the road. I'm thinking of getting a PCY135 as a ride, or another PCY100 as a Hi-Hat. unless maybe its that much better to just save up for a RHH135 for more realism. Also the rack is a bit flimsy... It all adds up!
My question is: What changes/upgrades are most important for development of proper technique, added fun/inspiration, and realism?
