We're looking at the D5A TA and D7A TA's but any Volvo genset feedback is welcome.

I have no experience with Volvo gensets, they do make good marine engines. However parts are costly and can be hard to come by. I had to wait 3 weeks for a belt tensioner to come into the Volvo dealer for a D12 and am located in Fort Lauderdale. Volvo filters and maintanence parts are costly IMO.
I do have experience with one large CAT genset and it was great. Parts and service are cheaper (parts) and easier to find worldwide.
