Default Quantum Energy "Burner"

Anyone have one? I've thrown baitcasters my whole life (with the exception of a blue moon "professional overrun") I've never had a blow-up as bad as this thing does. Yes, I know how to set brakes. Has anyone else had this problem with this thing or is it just operator error? Are the brakes that damn sensative on the 7:1?

Dont feel bad hef. I bought a Quantum PT after despising quantums for several years due to a severe problem with customer service. Well after finding out that Quantums customer service has evolved I bought the reel. First time out with the reel had it set in super free mode, well the pic wasnt pretty. Imagine 75yds of 20lb P-Line wrapped around a geritol drunk ole fart. LMAO!! It was a priceless pic.

The brakes on mine are very sensitive.
