Thought my large 2010 felt slightly small.
Then got a XL 2013 and felt it was slightly big.
Now I have the new large 2014 (sized half way between the 2013 L and XL) and feel it is perfect.
Marzocchi doesn't have a great track record of first year products. Very few bike companies in the industry do, but looking at the weight of the Devo, it seems like they went "rather safe then sorry" so that'd probably be the safer place to go.
New Marz look good. DVOs are good but porky. Lot of the DVO guys ride Jedis, not that that has much relevance sorry.
I'd base my decision on price if you're deciding between the two. I'd get 380s for lighter weight, but I'm not a big guy.
I did have some DVOs for a couple of weeks on loan, and they felt great from the get go.

While i DO NOT have any ride time on the new 380, a few guys that i have spoken with loved them. One even compared it to a BOS. I think KillingtonVT rode a 380 for a little bit, perhaps he will chime in on it

Fair enough, and my recommendations on em are tainted after I, and so many buddies spent over a grand each on their products, only to have their resale value drop to ~150 dollars within 9 months, while simultaneously being sh1tty forks. Going to take a lot to recover from that before I'd ever willingly suggest somebody buy a first year marzo product (unless I thought they were a douchenozzle)
i've been running marz stuff for the last few years. current 55cr and 888cr both '14 models. real happy with both. the 888cr is kinda porky, but thats the only negative i have
