Opinions anyone?

Do any of you all believe that the new Redline coming out from Escort will be worth the extra money spent in the case (my case) that one already possesses an Escort 8500x50? In other words, do any of you think (or know for that matter) that they Escort Redline will be an overall better detector than my 2 month old X50 in terms of range and sensitivity to instant on radar? Any input would be most appreciated. Thanks guys

Here is my opinion:

The Redline will have better range than your X50 against C/O radar. As for I/O, I think the Redline will be just as bad as any other Escort RD against I/O. I expect to perform identically or close to the 9500ci. I would keep your X50 for now and wait for GOL's radar detector test to come out.

Why did you post this in the Valentine One section?

The X50 is a good rd and i think selling it and buyin a Redline would not be worth the difference in performance. But you should wait for everybody to give their personal reviews

I agree.

The new Redline is the same hardware as the Bell STI-driver

You can see how the STI stacks up against against X50 here

I assume that would not inlcude the redline though?

Hopefully before my 9500ix 30day return is up

[NOLA_BB6]

^ Probably. I know a couple people have been testing Redline's already such as Radar Roy. I'm pretty sure GOL got one somehow. When is your 30 days up? It'll be a couple weeks before the results will be posted.

Actually, I believe it's the same hardware as the STi-R in a dashmount form.

Isn't that what an STI-Driver is https://www.beltronics.com/store/sti-driver.html

How many Windshield mount Dual antenna, Magnesium case, TotalShield, detectors does Belscort have? Me thinks ONE (Redline A.K.A. STI-Driver).

Someone in another thread called escort and they even told them that !
