I have MeanV on both of my BowTechs and love them. Great service and quality work. I have never used a Rattler, but have seen video reviews of their product and it really seems to do the job.

Get an STS, it has more adjustment than a MeanV. Remember, your speed does depend on where you put an item such as an STS.
Davepjr and I proved it on the range. It was shocking.

I went with a string tamer on mine,set up was a breeze and it works awesome, have taken off the string silencers as well now.

RE: Need help deciding on string surpressor
Sorry,I don't like or care for any string suppressers.They all make a "thump",and in my opinion,transfer vibration directly into the riser.Think about it,all of a sudden,all these bows "have" to have them.To me,I feel it's an design flaw that makes them a manufactors gimmick.Even though I don't shoot a Mathews,they have the only one that I would say is worthwhile.My new Katera XL,after shooting a couple hunderd shots though it,I removed the string suppressor,and with a pair of the right cat whiskers,it's much quieter,no hand shock,just a pleasure to shoot.As a matter of fact,it's quieter than my 07 Commander.I'm not trying to start anything,just my opinion.

It's like I always tell everybody. There are a lot of string suppressors on the market today, look them over and buy the one that appeals to you. Then just enjoy the benefits!! Bottom line is they work!! I get feedback day in and day out, and those that don't see an improvement in their bow is considerably less than 1%
