    I'd especially like to know where to get a hardline setup like the one found on RT Classics

      I havent had very good luck with the swivel fittings that I have used. Out of the 4 that I had, 3 of them leaked.

          I have heard that you can use the line from a Phantom and it can be shaped to fit.
          ......You know you want one!!

            Really, I have used them and never had problem. Usually put 4-5 turns of teflon tape, do that to all fittings.

                    Yes the oring blows out, now a macro swivels dont give me any trouble

                        Right. When I say swivel fittings fail, I am talking about the type you use for braided line, not macro fittings.
