I've been running the 9500ix for a few days now and it's definitely much quieter in areas where my V1 would alert like crazy. I even witnessed the 9500ix automatically mark a false spot which I thought was pretty cool. I do miss the arrows and every time the 9500ix goes off, I would look at the place where my concealed display used to be. But in the end, when I the radar goes off, I slow down.
