I always liked the XLII-S, somehow a smoother sound - if I wasn't too influenced by publicity back when I was that young (or now...)

The Maxells I recorded 25 years ago on a Yamaha tape deck consistenly sounded better to me. The Maxell XLIs were especially good for rock. And I think more of the Maxells have survived but both are very reliable for cassette tapes.
