Advice Akios shuttle 666

I have a Shuttle 656 Sportcast.......bought it when i wanted to try a multiplier after using fixed spools all my life.

Mine has been fine, no dramas or any real birds net issues. I also bought a 2nd hand 6500 mag and always think that spins more feely than the Akios even when the brakes are set at their loosest (although I haven't fished with them t that setting, for fear of over runs!). I am no long range caster but read a few good reviews before buying it.
Looks nice on the rod and whilst I have not used other multipliers I do think its nice to use and easy to cast.
