It's an awesome detector and the one that started the "stealth" feature but I don't know if I would go that far.

My buddy actually had his side-by-side with another buddy's valentine one in his m5 for a road trip from NY to FL we went on, and I watched it stomp the Valentine. That's what I'm saying basically, it's the best in its price point.

Two radar detectors should not be run side by side even if one of them is stealth because theoretically they can interfere with each other due to their "local oscillators"

Well, OK. The above link was to recent radar detector testing. The Magnum wasn't deemed worth testing due to it's lack of band segmentation and RDR feature now found on the Redline.

And here is some more enthusiasts talking about the Magnum:

Don't get me wrong, again, it's a great detector but there are better out there.
