I am looking at replacing my DX959 base with an S-9 or S-980. This is instead of modding my 959 like crazy just for a bit of extra power. I am NOT interested in driving an amp. Just going barefoot.
Anyone have any experience with the new 980?
Searching this forum I see both good and bad feedback about Magnums. Around here they have a very good reputation and didn't even question buying one.
Any other suggestions as to a similarly featured radio?
I have seen the Cobra 200 has quite a bit of power out of the box and tweaked it does real well. Is this so?
At under $250 it is a steal compared to the S-9.
As you can probably tell I am a bit of a newbie and can use all the help I can get.
