I would tend to agree with both of the previous posts. I have owned a Magnatec and I have shot an FX. I really liked the FX because it has all of the characteristics that I find attractive in a hunting bow...the axle to axle length, speed, brace height, noise level, etc...

The Magnatec is a bit longer in axle to axle length and might weigh about a half pound more as well. Noise level and recoil/vibration are similar though the FX is a tad faster.

Either would be a good choice and in my area the prices aren't that far apart....around $370/$380 for the XT2000 version of the Magnatec and about $400 for the FX.
