How do Vivaces compare to stigmas or dragonflies?

[(Opted Out)]

So I've been using the short and long stroke Vivaces for the past several months and I've been very pleased with them!. I've been exclusively using the long stroke for lining and I can't imagine ever going back to coils. I've really enjoyed the short stroke for shading and it does a pretty good job with color too.

I'm looking to add a third rotary to my arsenal and I was wondering how much better throwing a couple hundred more dollars into a machine ( stigma, dragonfly) makes it? I would like a versatile machine if possible to fill whatever gap I may need but having one lean more towards using a mag as opposed to a round would be more important. Any input as to weather I'm going to notice where those extra couple hundred are going or would I just be better off saving money with another Vivace?

Any input is appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read this.

I know the feeling mate, i also use a 2.5 and a 3.5 vivace for linkng and colour... But felt i needed something softer or maybe just a bit more versatile to add to the lineup, so u invested in a swashdrive whip... The hyper is nice but still dont think it quite hits the spot!.. I havent tried a spektra halo yet but that seems to be the bomb! Thats my next investment! For the money i think the stigma is no better thanthe neotat just different!... Still waiting for the whip to arrive but hoping that is awesome!

The v3 hyper is pretty different from the v2, if you haven't tried it I would. I'm not sure how it could be like a vivace?

I didnt say it was like a vivace?... I have heard great things about the hyper v3 actually! I did like my hyper v2 it just never seemed to hit that sweet spot with me if you know what i mean?..
