I see no particular advantage as far as Radar function from Escort 8500 X50 to 9500ix. X50 is perfectly apt in detection area as far as I'm concerned.
The thing with Cheetah is I might have to get the $100-ish Cheetah interface to X50 besides $300 main mirror unit and this system is not as self contained and tidy and Escort... and most of all if the actual unit sound as thin and annoying that'll give me the headaches... compared to the 9500ix's much more real dimensional voice. There is a Radar Roy's vid clip that has both of the voices and you can tell the difference.
How is the sound of this Cheetah mirror in real life? |
For the past couple of days, I've been having trouble logging on to RD.net, but if you can link to the posts/videos here, particularly from YouTube, I'll see if I can't give it a listen, as I have both the GPS-Mirror and the 9500i, and see how accurate the on-line representation may be.
What I can tell you - by *
MY* ears - is that yes, the GPS-Mirror's voice seems to offer a little less "depth" than that of the 9500i, but I think that this may be both volume-related as well as positional...not to mention just individual personal-perception variance.

Also another important thing to me is how many entries can you "mark" on the 9500ix? I know you can mark 100 on the Cheetah.

I unfortunately do not know the answer to this one.
