If you have the DTXpress IV with TP100s, I am not sure why you would
want to use the TP65S instead.  I have a TP100 on my DTXpress III and
wouldn't go back to the TP65.  I don't mind the TP65 for the toms,
although I've never played a DTXpress IV with TP100s for the toms, so
I have no comparison there.

You will lose the ability to use the red knob on the TP65 (it doesn't
have one).  The TP65 also doesn't have a convenient volume know
(although it has a screwdriver adjustment).

Why do you want to replace them?

Keith.
