the pro m is pretty nice, but i am a big fan of the catalina. i havnt played the maples but the birch is the best "sounding" intermediate level kit i've played. and that is compaired to the pro m, the sonor force 3005, pdp, yamaha stage custom, pearl export...ect. and cheaper too. with the extra money you can buy a great snare...even a better black panther than the free one offered with the pro m. of the other intermediate kits i mentioned the pro m would rank third under the sonor force 3005.
