Great edrum set for beginner or advanced drummers
Kostazac 26.08.2021
I spend a lot of time, to decide if I would go with mesh or silicone heads and I am happy I finally chose silicone and Yamaha. It is way cheaper than TD-17, with a better module, much better pads/kick surface and hihat stand is included. First concern was the size of the pads, but eventually I saw nothing that prevented me from playing the way I want. Do not be afraid of their size. They can't limit someone from playing or practising just because of their size.

Prons
The DTX Pro module is amazing. Amazing natural sounds, compression density that makes you feel you are in a studio with acoustic drums and great trigger/customize options. There are even training excersices for beginners. There is an extra stereo input that supports 3-zone pads/cymbals.

Pads:
Silicone is the BEST by far at the moment on the e-drum pad feeling of play. I have played a lot on Roland set and there is nothing closer to the feeling of playing on an acoustic pad, than this silicone technology. Big thumbs up to Yamaha. The positioning options across the rack will satisfy everyone, in my opinion.

Cymbals:
3-zone all 3 of them, great feeling, exactly as you expect a great e-cymbal to work like.

HiHat:
2-zone hihat, the sensor is attached under the pad. Again, great job, I personally prefer how it feels than a VH-10, which I have played at, as well.

Kick:
KP-90 is really a beast. Amazing sound coming from a 3-layer build and honestly, this thing is the closest you can find to an acoustic drum bass. The rebound is so natural that you can even use it for practice, without the module being off. There is a mono input if you want to add an additional single-zone pad/cymbal

Rack:
Compact size, very steady, without legs at the left, so you can adjust the hihat stand as you prefer.

Hihat:
I could not find anywhere over the web, if HS650A supports pedal rotation so you can fit a double bass pedal. The answer is YES YOU CAN rotate the pedal by unscrewing the base and you turn it to the position you want so you can fit the left bass pedal next to it.

Cons
Module/Tom pads are single zone, which is not that bad, however the Tom1, Tom2 and Tom3 inputs on the module also support only single zone. That might be disturbing if you want to upgrade your pads to mesh or buy bigger Yamaha pads (like XP100 or XP120) which support 3-zone.

Mixed Feelings
Adam Outlnd 26.06.2022
I bought this because I was on a budget. Having mostly used V-Drums before, I find Yamaha's sounds far superior to Roland's (especially the cymbals). That said, I have one major peeve with them: the trigger sensitivity sucks if you like playing with dynamics. The velocity on the drums seems to cap out low and sometimes even cut if you lean into it. It drives me crazy. The set levels of everything seem off as well, and the brain is not NEARLY as intuitive as Rolands. Also, the hardware is cheap, and if you hit the drums hard they will continually tilt down. So ya, the sounds are good, but unless you are a very subdued player you'll be frustrated.

Looks can be deceiving.
apostolosapok 22.05.2021
Having used the Roland TD-17KVX i can make a good comparison between them and since now it is cheaper than the TD-17KVX its a great alternative.

Pros:
Great Sound Module: It looks old fashioned but it has individual inputs in contrast to most similarly priced drum modules that use the cable snakes, the sounds are better compared to the competition, it has a lot of settings and adjustments you can make to fit it to your style, the triggering is top notch.

Pads: I prefer the silicon pads to most mesh pads although higher priced mesh pads like the roland digital snare still come on top , way more pricier though.

Cymbals: They are the same cymbals Yamaha uses for years now but they are great, high quality and trigger great, especially the hi hat is a better implementation vh-10/11.

Rack: Great quality and sturdy rack much better than the mds compact rack on the td-17kvx.

Cons:
Like everyone mentioned the pad sizes are small although you can practice just fine most people expect bigger pads and i am sure Yamaha could provide their bigger pads at the same price after so many years in production.

Great quailty for this price
simontea 15.03.2023
Honestly, the best thing here is the sound and the price.
It's better than most of the electric drum kits in this price range. The only difference between this one and the 8K-M is that this one has smaller but still silicon pads, which have a great feel and are noiseless. But don't let this fool you, the quality is there.
