So, I'm gonna buy a DP. I was pretty much set on the Pearl P-120TW http://messe.harmony-central.com/Musikmesse04/Content/Pearl/PR/P-120TW.jpg
that one.
I have the single and I like it. I have tried the eliminator, but I don't think it's worth 50% more.
Then I saw that the Janus ergo isn't especially expensive for a topoftheline pedal. So what do you think of the Ergo, can someone compare it to the Elim. pro - con etc.
And how would you compare it to the Pearl P-120TW??
:chug:

Yeah, it is. But that doesn't mean it's tEh sUckAge.

IDK, can't try it out. And the footplate looks uncomfy.

ergos should kickass, they look solid
I own those Pearl pedals, I like them a lot. I've tried out the Januses and didn't like them as much as my P-120s, but that could just be because I'm used to it so much. Try them out.
They're powerful as hell too:

Dude, at the store there were cheap Pearl pedals on a electronic kit and I was seriously flying on them, better than I ever have before. You totally just need to find a pedal that fits you.

OK, now I'm deciding between Janus Ergo, Pearl P-122TW and DW7000.
Keep in mind that the Pearl's are 33% less then the others, take a pick and please take the money into account when you do.
