Yamaha DTX 750K Price and Review
Two of the big changes with the 750K are the inclusion of a 3 zone toms and the durable RS700 rack system. A full set of DTX-PADs offers more realistic feeling drums and the RS700 rack includes real drum hardware and genuine Yamaha ball clamps which allows for precise positioning and stability of the pads.
In addition the DTX 700 module allows for bass drum flexibility with an option to play double bass with the closed hi-hat pedal and quiet option with HH65 accessory. The inclusion of 3 cymbal pads with 3-zone (cup, bow, edge) realistic expression and the ability to choke or mute, gives the capability to create genuine sounding percussion.
At a price point of roughly $3,200, the DTX750K becomes an electronic drum kit that requires a more serious financial investment and drumming commitment.
