Looks good but Sounds needs lots of tweaking
The KM1200 (Kick mic) is surprisingly good on toms/congas and bongos
The TM1200 (Toms mics) needs lots of Gain to attain usable levels, their internal noise becomes audible once the level is good. They are simply not usable.
The CM1200 (Overheads) need also lot of Gain (compared to any other condensers I own) Rather Middish with lack of body. OK for a high-hat, but not for overheads.
All in all, I am happy with the price I paid .
I will keep the the Kick mic and the two little condensers.

Very pleased.
The overall quality for the price is pleasing. I rated 4 out of 5 stars on sound because the bass drum mic is rather weak on the low end.

Good entry level mics.
I've installed a set of these on a kit in a church and they definitely do the job in a small to medium environment.
The kick mic is a little boxy with prominent low mids and little top end. It'll need a hefty boost in the upper mids if you want to have a nice click transient.
The 2 overhead mics are very reasonable considering their tiny size. I'll always high-pass these to pick up primarily cymbal and snares. If you're not careful they'll pick up other stage spill too.
The 4 universal drum mics also seem quite prominent in the lower mids, which will need quite a strong eq to compensate but pick up plenty of transients from the drum sticks. When micing up a snare, the top end will need a significant boost unless you add another mic underneath to capture the rattle.
The mic clips are the biggest let down so far. Two have snapped so far within a few months of use with no easy way to replace them. If you need any more you'll have to buy another full set or use a different manufacturer as Behringer don't seem to supply them separately.

Small but substantial
These have surpassed my expectations. The build quality is also very good.

Does the job, don't expect too much from it you won't be disappointed.
It's a basic set, it will pick up a sound but not a high quality one.You will also have to turn the gain all the way up, it's pretty quiet.

Great Choice..
I was impressed by the sound profile of these drum mics despite the low cost. I came back to buy another set but unfortunately found them out of stock. I highly recommend.
