From my personal experience, both are pretty equal using the stock heads and rims, but when using higher quality heads (remo, evans, etc) and tune them well I think the export's tone is significantly better.

The Forum Series is a very nice low-end drum set for beginner to intermediate drummers. It is priced less than 1,000 dollars and comes in a variety of colors. Pearl also has a lifetime warranty on all of their products.

In Conclusion, If You are looking for an inexpensive, great sounding kit, choose the Pearl Forum.

(Most come with Pearl Heads and Pearl Cymbals. I would recommend replacing the heads with Remo or Evans heads, and also replacing the cymbals out with Dream, Sabian, or Zildjian cymbals.)

Sound percussion and Pearl are made by Pearl Music Worldwide. Sound percussion is a "knockoff" version of Pearl drum sets, ergo why they are much cheaper. If you are looking for quantity (meaning more drums for less) for less money then go for Sound percussion. But if you want good sounding live drums go with pearl (more expensive).

I have owned both and Pearl brand drums are much better sounding than Sound Percussion IMO, but what you are buying this for will answer your question.

If you are a beginner then go with SP and build your kit up from there. (there is a starter kit and then you can buy an expansion) (or buy a 9 piece set from the start)

If you are more experienced I should not have to answer with this question and you already know to go with Pearl branded drum sets.

(These have more custom mounted/floor toms, bass drums and snares[rather than one pre-set expansion set])
