OOOh Yes !!! ..........................they were very very expensive...
for Example SDS7's brain (5 modules in it ) about £2500 ...(I mean the equivalent in France...)
about the Same for the SDSV ... (I think £3000 for the 5 pieces kit)
The SDX !!!!!!!!!!!! £ 5000 !! the standard console without all the memory etc...
full option was then about £8000...
In France, I've heard that it went up to £12 000 !!!!!!!!!????????
that's why I started to buy Simons when I saw them cheap in the nineties...
HOpe that helps ,
bye.

Subject: [Simmons Drums] Simmons drum original prices
Hello Folks,
Would anyone happen to know what any of the models of Simmons drums
cost when they first came out back in the 80's? A friend of mine who
has a kit vaguely remembers his parents getting him two pads and an
SDS5 brain for about 2 grand US, but he's not sure since he didn't
personally make the purchase. Were they really expensive back then?
Thanks.
Mike
