Decided to try both!

[bzeola]

Thanks everybody for your help. When in doubt,try both! As in the Redline and V1. No doubt the 9500ix would be great for my city driving. But when i do drive the highways,and i will now especially,i want the performance of the Redline or the V1. I can deal with more city falses they have compared to the 9500ix. I just ordered the Redline from radarbusters.com. Instead of posting this as a "New Thread",i posted this first in the "reply" section of my original note in general info. Sorry,newbie mistake.

Everyone should do this if they are torn between two detectors, good move!!

I wish I would have done the same, definintely a good move on your part. I was planning on using the V1 for a while, then trying the Redline out, but time kind of slipped up on me. Oh well, I'm pretty happy with the Valentine. I'm not sure how big of a city you live in, but you may be very surprised as to how quiet the Valentine actually is capable of being. If K band is used in your area, be sure to check the K band muting stuff out. It's a very nice feature.

X2, I love the simple V1 muting, very impressed. However the RedLine's Auto mode is pretty amazing. Good choice to try both bzeola.

Running two detectors at the same time is not recomended. With the V1 and Redline, the V1 will interfer with the Redline. Check out youtube comparison videos and they're pretty evenly matched as you'll find out.

This is true. I will do as the "conclusion" of guysoflidar article recommended. Thanks. I know a few spots were some LEO's set up quite often. A good start.
