I tested a Quantum Cabo for an international importer just after they came out.
Loaded it with 25lb power pro and had a hot bite on bass on an ebbing tide.
The reel performed very well,especially the drag which was very smooth indeed (I had burnt it in before I started).
The line lay was a little lumpy, which would have been better with 40/60lb in my opinion.
The anti-reverse was a real dream and well up the task, but I didn't like the loud clonk as the bail arm went over.

After returning the reel to the importer, it was sold to a guy in my fishing club (mmm?)
Within 6months he had the bail arm snap clean thro at the carrier end!

Just observations, you pays your money and makes your choice.
