I am replacing my electronics with Raymarine Axiom XL 16 inch MFDs along with the radar on my boat. I have read and re read the information I can find on the internet on the New Doppler dome and the Magnum array and both seem like good products. I know the array is 72 miles and best visual quality over the 48 miles and medium quality picture. I’ve been on Raymarine forum and read the moderators take of the dome being middle of the road vrs the Magnum being top of the line array. They even have a nice graph about line of sight miles for radar. I’m not going to be mounting high enough to see 72 miles anyway and in this day and age will I even notice the picture quality.
I’m trying to justify if I really need to spend twice as much for nearly nothing extra or is it that much better and I am missing something.
