Why are the snares rattling when doing rolls on the mounted toms?Never had this problem so was wondering if its because of the cheap quality that came with the kit.Snares are as tight as they can possibly get.I already got good quality drum head replacements but still have that persistent rattling....Guess while I am at it,also need to know what Zildgian cymbals are best for rock style playing but aren't heavy sounding.Want quick crashes and quality ride and hi-hat(maybe soft rock sound)

Sounds to me like you got the snares upside down, or one sides is uneven in tension.
I never NEVER buy cymbals without hearing them first.
There around 6 major cymbal names in the music biz.
1. Paiste
2. Ziljian
3. Sabian
4. Meinl
5. Bosphorous
6. Istanbul
and you can get a lemon from any of them.
When I test cymbal's at the store I hit them with everything I got. If they don't break or dent and they have the right sustain, I own them. The guys at the store hate it when I come in. But WTF, if I am gonna fork out 300 bucks for something you hit everyday they better live with it.
