Learn how to control your drumming. I really don't see the point of having to hammer on the drums as hard as humanly possible. Buy some brushes. It's just as fun. (and cultivates dynamic ability)
Unless you're playing some heavy sh*t and want to practice how you play... in which case you should probably wear some headphones. Otherwise, play softer. Sure would beat buying hundreds of dollars worth of equipment. If I were you, I'd just buy whatever you want for the media room that isn't going to sacrifice in quality for any purpose, and not worry about how much it can push. Like GB says, if you're going to try to compete with an acoustic drum kit, you're going to end up blowing your sh*t. So the obvious choice is to either play softer and/or with brushes... but if you can't seem to control how hard you hit the drums, have a big headphone party.
Just my 2 cents.
