slanted front panels

I'm curious why Diezel decided to stop the slanted front panel after the VH4? (Though it looks like it will be back on the VH Mini)

It's a cool distinctive design. I think the ergonomics are great, since usually you're looking down at the amp.

The diagonal knob layout on the VH4 are also distinctive, and the knobs are grouped in a way that makes the layout easy to understand.
 
Yeah, the VH4 knob layout is quite good--other amp brands with all the controls straight across seemed weird and less clear to me after using it. That said, I think it can be improved by adding a little separation ("white space") between the EQ portion and the gain/volume controls to distinguish them better from each other. But maybe that would be tough due to the limited space and internal layout.
