I've been looking to buy a set of Mags, but which are the best of the bunch, I'm leaning towards the xtb black mags but, are they the best of them?

XSB mags without any doubt, and I think I've owned pretty much all of them, including the new xtds

Hated the XTB but love the XTD,for me the xtd feels much smoother and more robust.

I'm out now using my XTB black mags, and these with the XSB mags are the best I've ever used and I really can't see me buying another set of reels in my lifetime 👍

Of course i would take them but only with some smokey bacon crisps as not thar keen on cheese and onions. A pack if frazzles would be even better. I would then stick the reels straight on ebay and buy some proper reels.

I can't believe I'm still biting on this
but the reason they're still commanding very high prices on second hand platforms must be a reflection of the outrageously poor quality

So old solar stuff is rubbish then?
I'd personally argue it's rare and quality. I can't comment on the XTD's because I don't own them but the idea of suggesting that the best selling technium reels ever made are rubbish is for the birds, imo.
It's also worth noting that mint second hand sets of xsb mags are fetching more than the cost of a brand new set of the current technium reels so does that mean these folks have all got a screw loose?
Quality is particular to the individual and imo those two sets are the best I've used.
I keep looking at the new SQ5 car to replace my 16 plate SQ5, and the new one is probably better but it doesn't mean my current car is crap.
