I need HELP!

[rollthbns]

Hello to everyone out there. I have been in the drum shopping mode for some time now, and it is getting down to the wire as to what I will end up with. I would just love a refresher course from any willing participants with regards to a comparison of BRX/MMX.

I am playing in mostly lower volume situations, so being able to control volume levels is important. I read and understand the basic characteristics of the different woods and how they relate to sound, but Id just love some input from experienced drummer types. I had evaluated a DW kit for some time, and it has now come down to either the DW or an MMX. I could still entertain a BRX however, should it fit my application better. Pearl has a much better price policy that DW. Ok.. enough rambling!

Also, I really want to thank all of you who post here and also Pearl for this forum. It has been of great help so far!!

Mark :D

PS... Can you sense the confusion?? It is a sizeable investment, and I would like to eliminate as many mistakes as possible :rolleyes:

for lower volumes the MMX is a beautiful kit. very warm and classy sounding. great drums. the BRX, in MY opinion is more of a rock type option where you would want a muted sound yet a really LOUD sound. the brx 's have a lot of projection. the MMX's are more like the Dw's, really warm and buttery sounding with good blend of attack and depth. but try to play both and see.

Thanks! I am leaning in the direction of the mmx.... hope to see some of the new color choices soon
