Replying to Armada and TM opinions

I'm looking into either getting Armadas, or the TMs. I don't want you guys to tell me what to get, I'm not one of those poser kids that ask what they should spend their load of money that their parents gave them. I'm looking for some opinions on each kind of ski so I can narrow it down from pros and cons. I wouldn't be asking you this stuff if I could demo, but unfortunately I can't, so hopefully this will help.
