Interesting the mentioned differences...Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator...When I bought my 950 and it was compared to the Atlantic design, their differences were the matching blue LEDs (to their other gear...not a plus for me) and they used a machined aluminum volume knob while the Outlaws used a plastic one (I could probably order their aluminum knob if I HAD to have one...I don't)...you just found out the charm of the Outlaw equipment and seemingly talked to someone who is a straight shooter (perhaps new Outlaw Employee???) at ATI...Good Luck.
