Does anyone have any of these installed, or experience with it? For $400 it seems like a comparable product to the 2 that aren't sold here anymore.

The first one looks very much like the SP-716, which is covered in detail on this site. The reviews aren't so great, from what I gather. I could be wrong though...

The 2nd one, from what I understand, is the K301 and is the exact same thing as the MTSVO-SC which used to be sold here. So, if a bunch of people are having problems with the MTSVO-SC, I would expect the K301 to have the same issues.
