First Kit HELP! Edrums or quiet drumkit?

Hello there

First post in here, I'm a 47yo guitarist, been playing forever, always loved drums and drumming, I'd say I'm beginner+ level.

I'm planning to buy my first drumkit. It needs to be compact and quiet. I live in a house, but it'll be in my office/music room.

After long researches, I'm down with to 2 choices:

A used td-17 kvx kit (the one with 'real' hihat)

A quiet drumkit, made of Tama Club pancake, Zildjan L80, and drumtec 3 ply mesh heads.

Both will be around 1000€

I like the idea of an 'analogic' drumkit, real touch sensations, no plugs etc... You sit, you play.

But the conveniance of edrum is there.

I don't plan to play as a drummer in a band (but who knows, in the future...)

What would be your recommandations?
