Trane XB300 - Any good?

I own a rental town-home unit in which I'm replacing the heating/cooling system. The contractor in his quote specified the Trane XB300 as the AC unit and some Gibson model (I'm getting details now on which on it is) air handler.

I'm okay in general with the Gibson. But I'm not sure about the Trane. Does anyone have any experience with this unit? It's their least expensive unit and is builder's grade. I've tried searching and have read both good (Climatuff and warranty) and bad (noisy) about it.

If sound is a concern, you could always add a compressor blanket. »www.brinmar.com/sound_bl ··· ets.html

I have one on mine and it makes it noticeably quieter. It removes most of the higher pitched sounds from the compressor and makes it sound lower and smoother.

Thanks. I never even knew such things existed.
