I totally understand what you're saying. The only issue I would see with the CEN is lack of widespread parts support. If your LHS carries CEN parts on hand, then by all means, look at the CEN as one of your options because they're decent from what I've heard. However, if you don't have local access to parts, you'll be waiting for shipping when you break parts. In that sense, if you don't have widespread parts support, I would go with the Associated. Associated is carried in a lot more places than CEN.
