II doesn't even compare for ME! SOme people have stated they have noproblems and if it behaved like the spec I I have I would keep it in a heart beat since it is a nice BC, but to many people have had problems for me to recommend them. The type S is suppose to be a spec II in a spec I case and controls, but I think Greddy had problems with the spec II and redesigned things so it worked like the spec I.
