Cool, I was just looking at some Rolands and thought that if I run 
into some used ones at a good price...? I guess then there may be a 
different kind of mounting issue to contend with as well.
I REALLY like to stick with Yamaha stuff! I've been on the look out 
lately on ebay, for used Yamaha pads'n things. I didn't know 
Drumbalaya.com has used things for sale...Huh! I'll take a closer 
look at this site!:)
I even thought about buying a 2nd DTXpress kit so I can get a 
buttload of extra rack componest to expand my system. I actually 
have bought several pad mounts to accomodate my extra pads.
