used set's are fine if u know what to look for....and i wouldn't bother with a brand new set unless ur current set is from walmart....but as long as it's not from walmart then i'de do some research about good heads and whatnot cuz with the right heads and such u can make an ok set sound pretty darn good and alot of the sound has to do with how the heads are tuned and stuff....it may not be the set itself...and ur current heads may even be ok...so first i would research how to tune heads right and what little tricks u can do to them to sound better like i always tape a folded up paper towel to the outer edge and that elliminates alot of unwanted overtones...and also just like better hardware (ie. pedal,stands,cymbals....) makes a big diff too...so in conclusion...u can make a crappy set sound good...unless it's from walmart...then burn it..j/k...u can even make a walmart set sound decent if u know what ur doing. it just won't last long...good luck...if u want anymore specific tips on how to make certain compnents sound better don't hesitate to ask...
