Compared to any $1,000 binoculars

I don't think there's anything I don't like about them. I've never had a chance to compare it to the C Series, but it's every bit as good as the Vortex Razor HD. I like the grip and I feel better too. All the complaints I've read about it are pretty much unfounded. For example, there is no diopter lock. Okay, my diopters are very tight. First, it's hard to turn. No problem. The only thing I regret is that I didn't check the strength of 9. 11 is a lot but a bit difficult to maintain stability.

Extremely high quality

Excellent binoculars, bright and very clear. Interesting configuration in 9x45 format. The price is $1050.00 which is not exactly profitable for direct selling. Similar to Zeiss Conquest and Meopta Meostar, at a comparable price. Maybe even a little better. In my opinion the real deal is the B3 which I have in 8x30 for $525.00. While the other two mentioned come at a small discount and cost around $900.00, the $525.00 B3 sweeps away everything I've ever bought. seen in this price range. I found

  • Good product for the price

The value of a vest in quality optics

I spent a lot of time comparing binoculars before deciding to replace my 25 year old Zeiss 10x40 BGA. I looked at Swarovski, Leica, Zeiss and Maven. Visually, Swarovski was a bit sharper than the rest, but not enough to make you pay 2-3 times more. Next came Maven, very similar to the Leica Trinovids in my opinion and clearly superior to the Zeiss Conquest HD. I think this is the best value for binoculars and the 9x45 B2 is impressive. Exceptionally comfortable for long glazing sessions, very…

  • Few competitors

Amazing value for money

First of all, the optics of my Maven B2 11X45mm binoculars are simply outstanding. I'll get to that, but first I have to applaud the customer service. I was on a trip to Yellowstone National Park and had a small issue with an accessory that could make my birding trip less than ideal. I contacted Maven and they got me a new accessory which they coordinated during my trip to bring to me on the road. Wow. With the Maven business model, you get premium optics at a lower price than other brands. B2…

So happy with these Maven B2 9X45!

I've read countless articles about the best birding binoculars and even tried a few pairs from other manufacturers. I ordered and tried on a pair of Nikon Monark HG 8x42s for $1000 and wasn't impressed: my 15 year old Vortex 8x42s were just as good. I sent them back to borrow. I've also tried a pair of Zeiss Terra 8x42 which are much cheaper but good for birding. They also offered no improvement over my Vortex 8x42. I also sent them back. I had never heard of Maven prior to this "research," but

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Some issues

Excellent binoculars

I needed one of the best binoculars for a variety of purposes especially bird watching. I had several different binoculars, all good brands, but they were all old. Tools are that they don't age and 10 years later still work just as well as when they were first bought. But technology is improving and I decided to replenish my collection. I found Maven based on reviews, I had never heard of it before, but I bought 9x45 and was very surprised by its clarity, detail and lack of distortion. These…
