Maven C.1 10x42

Looking for opinions on maven c1 10x42 or any other options around that price range.

Plays really well in that price arena and with binos that cost quite a bit more. Slightly bested the Vortex Viper HD in my opinion although it does give up a little in the FOV vs the Viper.

My buddy has one and he loves it. I have it in 8x42 and it is a nice bino. I have become a bit of a "snob" though and will ALWAYS choose my Maven B2 9x45 over the C1. But I was glad to have the C1 when I damaged my B2 and had to send it in to get fixed.

By the way, Maven's customer service was absolutely STELLAR. They even loaned me another B2 when they couldn't fix it at their Wyoming offices and had to send it to their repair facility. I just got it back and it is as good as new, functions perfectly and they had obviously cleaned the glass for me. Great company with good people.

Awesome thanks for the info. Customer service sounds excellent

Couldn't be happier with mine. Everyone who looks through them is blown away.

People say they compete with glass in the $800 range.

There is nothing below $500 dollars that could compete with them.

Curious if anyone else has tried these against Vipers or Athlon Midas?

We compared them at length with the Vipers. Chose the Maven over them. Clearer, sharper and brighter. The Vipers did have a wider FOV though.

I compared them to the Vipers as well and the Mavens were an easy choice. I did their demo program and would have kept the demo's but they had a very small spot on the right lens. It was barely noticeable, but I sent them back and bought new. I've been very happy with them!

I have the exact pair you talking about and have been beyond impressed for what i paid. Mine live in the sxs and truck 24/7. After getting a 15x pair of swaros i debated on getting a smaller pair to pack but decided that i wasnt willing to spend that kind of money on a pair just to ride around the SxS, the mavens fit that bill perfect

Love my C1 10x42’s. Looked through Vipers too; went Maven.
