Hello Arthur
Drum kits are like any other instrument in that they come from different manufactures and in different styles, (e.g.: Pianos from different manufactures sound totally different, and the player chooses the one that suits his playing style and type of music)
Drummers choose likewise by selecting the parts of the kit to suit what they do.
In the end though, it is all down to personal choice, so the best way is, when you play a song, try different drum kits until one sounds right, and then use it for that song.
Hope this helps.

Bill
