Thanks for the explanation, Ed.   Ya, increased dynamic range 
corresponding to the hardness of a hit is certainly a highly 
desirable feature.   I just recently decided to buy an ekit, and in 
reading about them here and there, was wondering why the old DDrum4 
seemed so well regarded.    

I'm leaning towards getting a DTXpress III, as I liked the pad feel 
and rebound more than the Roland TD3/6 ones, I like the 3 zone snare 
feature, and it comes for a only a tad more money than the TD3 and a 
lot less than the TD6.
