I think it was a little too long. The intro itself was over a 1:00. Plus you could of saved time on the camparison by doing more than one at a time. Other than that it was good. ---

I think it would be great if they eventually make the DMv2 w/ both sili and the hybrid. I’m not a fan of the fact they changed the response. I love my DMv1 response, it gives it a different feel from my sili’d throws. Now the new response just gets lost in the shuffle w/ everything else. ---

great review dude i would like to see more video reviews usually its just video unboxing or something… only thing you didnt show was the different bearing thing I dont really get how that works… seems kind of pointless to me as i dont think a beginner really needs a small bearing. and i checked out your band I like metal (mostly powermetal), not so much into thrash but really good stuff!! ---
