Default New Shimano reel question

OK, curious to see the responses to this one.

Looking to get a new toy for next season and I'm a big fan of shimano reels mostly because of the refinement and light weight. I want to get a true "do everything" reel and I'm between a stradic 5000 fl, saragosa 5000 sw, or the twin power 5000 sw. I have an old model stradic 2500 fk and love using it for everything from fluke, stripers, blues, blackfish off the jetty, you name it, but I couldn't bring that in nearshore waters and feel comfortable to not get spooled by something big. Obviously there's a big price difference and I'm wondering, if I went with the twin power, what am I really getting that's worth $200+ than the stradic?

Thanks in advance.
