Yeah,

I've been following the whole Violet vs BLUE debate from the beginning, and
the more I see things the more I side with the Violet camp, sure the truth
is somewhere in between, but just looking at these plain facts...

Violet have this new mic, a new capsule design and half a dozen other mics
that bear little resemblance to anything BLUE... all this in the last year
or so...

And what did we get from BLUE at NAMM... a shockmount... Now I'm even more
suspicious....

Right now Violet is the underdog but I think more and more people are
taking a leap of faith, they now have official distribution a handful of
European Countries, the UK, New Zealand and the list is growing...

I've already jumped on board and own a Violet Black Knight, which hands down
is leagues ahead of min it's sub $400 price range. I hope to add either
another Knight or Amethyst this year to my collection.
