I am not on this topic ''just'' to bash Vivid's. I really like the sound they produce, but the looks really don't do it for me. I am sorry if I offended anybody, that was absolutely not my intent.
I also find it ridiculous if retailers bash products just because they don't sell it. There are thousands of brands, and none of them does it wrong. All with their own perspective and philosophy. That is one of the many reasons I love this hobby
