I had a set of EMX5000A's
Very well made, fantastic line lay etc
A tad heavy.
Sold them to make way for Shimano 10000XTE's.
May well look to get another set soon for the same reason as yourself, but may well look at the Shimano Power Aero XT 10000, with the built in front drag/baitrunner, a bit pricier though, retail at 299.99 but you can pick them up for 210 each
It's a blinder
