Not sure how they compare but I ran an ASM G-4 on my 230g for a year and I was very happy with it.

Ive read this too... it had something to do with plastic edges not being completly sanded down and has since been corrected.


Does anyone know if the extreme 200 is sold anywhere in calgary? or do i have to order online?
