Bro, I'm not really sure...I go with the best and don't look back. I had 2 bk 9920's that never worked right...my novaks thermaled every time I turned around...the mmm is well like pulling the pin an a hand grenade and hoping it wont go off. I just don't know! Mike cronin is the smartest guy's I know and I've spent hours with him on the phone quizing him about all the controls out there and it always comes back to mgm for high power handling and ultimate reliability...not many people have em cause they are twice the price. If I were you I would pony up the 350.00 and get the 160.24 or wait till next summer on the mmmv3 or v4 or whatever.
