Dude with all the research you've been doing, you should know by now that we can't choose for you to help with this dilemma your going through.
Go to the drum shops and decide on what your ears tell you to get. You've got the research down packed. Now you have to do the foot work and don't just go to one drum shop, check them all out if you can.
Your getting your mind into a spiral when you get yourself off track. I've been through it before deciding on which kit to get.
Now if your looking to get the best bang for the buck, try pricegrabber.com or some similar sites like Shopzilla. I'm all out of ideas on this one. Also check out Ebay or Craigslist.

I still think your the Guru of drum research at this forum.

Right Mr. Der
