Absolute BEST for EVERY E-KIT!

I recently bought my first electronics kit. I've been playing drums for over 50 years but haven't touched a few sticks in the last 12-14 years. I'm 63 years old and won't be in a band anymore, but as a drummer I always keep in shape. It's no secret (you can find it anywhere) that an average hour of drumming easily burns 1300 calories. In any case, for my purposes it is much more convenient to buy an electronic setup where I can control the volume and play at any time. This is not a review of the electronic drums I have purchased, but I feel compelled to mention the brand and model of the kit itself. I bought the Alesis Surge Mesh model and along with it a Behringer 15 amp and One Audio Pro 30 headphones. I have a pair of Audio Technica ATH M40X headphones that cost me about three times as much at the time (when I got them bought). Headphone Pro 30 did. The ATH M40X headphones have 40mm drivers, while the Pro 30 headphones have 50mm drivers. However, I didn't expect headphones, which I had never heard of, to be so superior to the Audio Technica range! Not only are the One Audio Pro 30 headphones much better at handling electronic drums, they also outperform the ATH M40X for my stereo. I wasn't expecting this, but I definitely recommend the One Audio Pro 30 headphones if you have or plan to buy electronic drums. Not only are these headphones very comfortable, but what really matters is that they can reproduce low frequencies down to the fundamental octaves with a punch you can feel! As I said earlier, I also bought a Behringer 15 wanting amplifier for the electronic kit. I will say that Behringer did not handle the base of the kick and floor tom AT ALL. If I couldn't connect my stereo's Polk Audio 100W subwoofer to an electronic kit, I'd probably send the Behringer amp back. My point is that if you don't have a choice like I do (a good subwoofer from your stereo) then you need at least a 60-100 watt amp. Trust me, you need an amp that can handle the low octaves your electronic kit is putting out. Sentence! You will not be disappointed! Rich
