Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Thanks again, The kit is up to 775 anyway.
I did some more looking around, I can get that kit DTX1 brand new for 
900.00. So I have made another, Well 2 choises, I think I will buy a 
TDXIII brand new. But I put a bid on a Roland TD compactlast night, 
For 405.00plus 40.00 shipping. 
It's three years old. Time will tell. I'm not going over 450.00 for 
it.
What would be a good amp to buy used, for an electric kit.
The clubs around me are small. And the music More on the acoustic
side. Plus I do not need to drown out my hand drums.
Would a small Keyboard amp be a good choise for getting Highs and 
Lows. Or should I buy a drum monitor.
Most that I have seen are running 300.00 or more.
How many amps will I need for a good sound? 30 or more?
15 I'm pretty sure will not cut it.

I will read some on this forum My questions are Probible there 
already.
