If you find the right set it can be better than a wood set. This one is mine and I can do so much more than an old school set. For 500$ you wont get much more than practice pads.

They still sound like ass........

No not really. Not if you get a decent one made in the last few years. That DM5 unit wasn't the best, but its acceptable

Nope - they all still sound like fake-ass drums - they are great for practicing in an apt, but that's about it. Acoustic drums sound WAYYYYYYYYY better.

Dude, stop being an elitist douche. You don't have to constantly control temperature, humidity, and pressure with an electronic set in order to keep it sounding perfect so you don't have to tune it before every use, notwithstanding the occasional tuning required after normal wear-and-tear of typical use.

Electronic drumsets have their positives and negatives. There are situations where electronic sets BURY acoustic sets and vice versa.

Elitist douche?!?!?!?

I said they are great for what they are intended to do. To tell someone they sound better is being a douche. Acoustic drums are not that tempermental (sp?).

If you live where you you can't play something as loud as an acoustic kit, they are a great alternative.

Also, for the 3500 bucks that vdrum setup costs, you can get one hell of an acoustic kit.

If you don't think acoustic sets are not that temperamental, you're not playing on a quality kit and you're not subjecting your sound to high enough standards. $3500 wouldn't buy the freakin SHELLS for a good set, let alone an entire set.

I had the rare pleasure of playing on a set hand-made by Bill Detamore himself for the Boston Symphony. The shells alone were $11,000.

Talk about elitist ($11.000 dollar shells)

I have a Pearl Masters Kit - not top of the line, but pretty nice. It can be had for less than 3500 easy. As with any true instrument, the sky's the limit when you get into custom stuff.

Anyway, I think we have strayed off course a bit, and I gotta go to work - dammit!

You can get any electronic set, and use it via midi on your pc using soundfonts. DFH Superior has some pretty nice sounds.

Check out the DFH Superior demos at Toontrack...pretty amazing stuff.
