I have been a PSE shooter since I started shooting many years ago. For several years now my friends have been raving on Mathews. I played it off as hype. Well this year I had the extra money, so I decided to try the LX and the Legacy. I fell in love with both and ended up buying the LX. I feel half guilty since I have a prefectly good PSE at home that has never failed me, yet I did it anyway. My Mathews feels like an extension of my body. It is so well balanced, so smooth, so quiet, and I have never shot so well. I love my LX. However, I recommend you shoot several bows and only buy what is right for you. Everyones bugets and opinions are different, what is right for some may not be right for you. I would ignore the brand battles and be my own judge.
