Thank you for the reply.
From what I understood from reading around, no one is "against" e-kits, but no one is recommending I start off with them either! I'm a complete newbie, I've only spent a grand total of 20 minutes behind a drum set in my life, that was sometime last week. So everyone is recommending that I start on an acoustic.
Why didn't you like the silencing pads?
Do you think you can give me an idea of just how loud a drum set with mufflers/silencers is? Either by description/comparison or even a youtube video! I know it's a weird question, but it would really help, and I don't know what else to do except buy a drum kit just to see how noisy it's gonna be in my house, which isn't very feasible
