Thank you for such an excellent site. A question though concerning introduction drumkits please.
I am looking for a good entry-level, progression-level electronic drum kit.
I have taken time to review your own, and other sites, recommendations. The Ion looks an interesting options, but is limited because it has to be connected to a computer (which were I am thinking of putting the kit wouldn’t be really practical). Other options that appear to gain good reviews are the Roand (e.g. Roland TD4KX) and Yamaha (e.g. DTXplorer) range. However, there is a considerable price difference in these two, and as you’d expect, I am waying-up the pros and cons of a good entry/progression kit with the cost and ensuring I don’t want to find that the entry level set first brought has a short shelf life).
Are these two reasonable options?; What alternatives would you suggest as well that are cheaper, or around the mark of these costs? Is the Roland really that good and worth expending so much money at this stage?
Help very welcome.

The Roland is a great choice.
It’s easy to setup and can be expanded upon as your skills grow – it’s also a good size to fit comfortably in a spare bedroom without it taking up waaay too much room and looking a bit intimidating
The Roland has a number of other presets that can help you along the way as you get started.
Good luck with it!
