    Default Whats the deal with the XTR-695SE?

    Why is it the only place that has them is crutchfield at $200? Why dont any of the regular dealers have them? Radar Busters? Buy Radar Detectors? Best Radar Detectors? I dont want to pay $200 for this unit?

    I wouldn't own a 695 SE the LCD screen is horrible unless you mount it high and in the shade 100%

    If you did what are the advantages of having the 695se over the other SEs?

    The ability to flag each band a different color is nice.. Why is no one besides crutchfield able to sell them?

    Mainly the extra features. The color changing screen. You can set different bands to display in different colors. The 695SE also has a compass for those of you who want your rd to have a compass.

    I have a 695 and it is mounted above the RVM. I have no problem seeing the screen.

    I like the ability to change the screen colors based on the alert type.

    I like the 695. It detects well, and the price is reasonable and Whistler stands behind their products with great service. I use it mainly on the highway and use a 9500ix in town.

    I also recently got a Pro 78 SE. I got it because of all the good things I have heard about the Pro 78 but I did read some not so good reviews about the SE version. Also, I like the blue display. Seems to detect well but I have only used it a short time and none on the highway yet.

    Which Pro 78 version do you have? If it is the SE version, are you having any issues with it.

    How do you guys set up your XTR695?

    I am in California and I run my XTR695 with X band off, Filter 1 on and dont know if I should shut POP off? I really dont get many false alerts with Filter 1 on in High way mode.
