No this module but a lesser one did get a very good review from a pro YouTube presenter. He had it in his top ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hideous I’ve never herd anyone say a bad word about how Vivid sound but I can’t take them seriously. They look stupid to me. I own the C1's and was just telling a mate the other day that I do like the C2 and C4's symmetrical look but don't like the C1. As for Vivid, Love the G1 and 2. Don't like the G3 and 4. Those tubes in that circle just look wrong. I'd still have them though. Love the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(heresy alert) how a speaker looks is almost as important to me as how it sounds. I wouldn’t live with a bad sounding speaker just because it looked good but I also wouldn’t live with an ugly (to me) speaker, even for great sound. That said, I reckon my speakers are absolutely gorgeous but my mate calls them ikea speakers (they’re clear birch with a very minimalist look) and my wife thinks they’re flat out ugly so the theme of this thread is definitely each to their own. For example, I love the look of Ls3/5as and Klipsch Heresys and quad 404 amps. Are they beautiful? Not really and they sure aren’t the objectively best-sounding gear but they have a certain aura about them, part cool, part nostalgic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
