Default Mtronics or Nosram?

Sorry to do this as I dislike 'this v that' threads as much as anyone...but, the next upgrade on my list is an ESC and I have narrowed the options down to two. The Nosram Matrix Evo or the Mtronics IP6. I am thinking to stick with brushed in the future and just wanted peoples opinions and experiences with these controllers. Is the Nosram worth the extra? Easy to use (for a newbie)? Any other comments and advisements greatly appreciated.

Local company M-tronics is, good service you will get.
Big international name Nosram is, more developed product you will receive. Partnership with LRP advances product always.
Buy where you feel The Force is strong.

I have raced both these speedos and regards to Nosram, it is a very nice and reliable unit. Small, light weight, pritty and a lifetime guarentee. The IP6 on the other hand is the best speedo I have ever had. This is not because I am sponsored by them, Its because its true. Yes you do have to have the power cap in, and have 2 shotty's on the motor but this will not matter when you drive it. The first thing I noticed when on the track is that the unit makes it feel like you have got brand new batteries in, even with 12 month old 1s. The brakes are another thing, much better than anything else. It is very smooth for the throttle and it never gets hot. ITs even easy to wire in. 3 pins ontop of the unit instead of on the side into the board. If any one wants to try 1 which I am at the meeting then please speak to me and you will be amazed . O and another thing, the guys over at M-Troniks are fantastic, even the owners.

I do have to say, the service from mtroniks is , in my experience, unparalleled. A quick phone call and "can I pop it in for you to take a look at", and on arrival at their door, no questions asked a replacement is given. No arguments there then However, I have to say, certain models I have had have shown poor reliability (RZR blew 2 and they were allegedly top of the range), but others pretty faultless (Mcube took serious abuse and never let me down).
I now own the Nosram Matrix evo, and so far I like it (enough to order a second one for the 4wd).
If only Keyence made a brushless controller............

Nosram all the way the advantage of the matrix is if brushless takes over you have the ultimate system that is only matched by the LRP version. I have had a bad exsperiance with mtroniks service they refused to replace it when it wasnt even my fault so i bought a new one and that blew up to. But the service at mirage is awsome i sent my domi away the monday the next tuesday arrived a brand new one.

Thanks guys. I always like to support the little guy and I read some of the favourable things posted about the IP6 before so it looks sorted. Cheers for the input.
