I've used a few of the Revo-S for the last couple of years and picked up a Revo-SX last spring. All have worked well. The S model I use for LM and SM. The SX is on my jig rod for stripers. Smooth drag and no problems with striper to the upper teens. All of them cast well. No problems so far. Not familar with the blackmax ones so cannot comment on them.

IMHO, the Revo SX is the best reel for the money. I have three and LOVE them, they have handled really well from bass to accidently catching Muskie. They cast like a dream and handle awesome. The Max reels are definitly a step down, sometimes 2 steps. But you get what you pay for, and that is very much true on Fishing Reels as well.
I used to be a Curado fanatic till I bought two sx's last March. I absolutely love these reels. Getting ready to add two more in a couple weeks.
I have used revo s reels for a bit over a year now and have been crazily pleased by their performance. I actually bought an sx and returned it and got another s. I didn't feel like the magnetic brake functioned consistently but then again I really didn't give it a full trial, so I may be speaking out of my butt. I'd say spend the extra cash and grab the revo s instead of the maxx series. Wal-Mart in Glasgow still has them for 99.99 I believe.
