These things are a function of not just the can, but the leverage ratio curve of the frame itself (which varies dramatically from frame to frame). My post was addressed purely at herbman who asked about the Reign (the bike this thread is about), a frame I have tried all of these shocks in, along with numerous coil shocks. He's been objective enough to recognize a fault which is a classic air spring curve related issue, and my response was an honest suggestion towards a genuine improvement on his particular frame - rather than throwing money at 'solutions' that won't fix the problem.
In your case I think you would have benefitted from running zero volume spacers and higher pressure, I'm sure you noted that the Corset runs a significantly higher pressure to attain the same sag. Vorsprung provide numbers for this pressure increase, and if this causes you to exceed the pressure capacity of the can then it's not for you. If you ran any less than the specified increase (compared to the same shock without the Corset, under the assumption the previous shock was set up optimally) then you didn't have it set up right.
Having seen the SB66c leverage curve, I think the Corset is a good fit for the frame, and your experience may have more to do with your individual requirements and/or comparisons to other bikes (many AM/Enduro frames AND air cans cause substantial jumps in spring rate across the first 1/4 of total travel - resulting in a perception of "support" and lack of "wallowing" which is really just a substantial nonlinearity destroying bump performance) OR a setup issue rather than actually being inferior.
Not having a go at you here, but your post to me indicates that you either didn't run enough pressure in the Corset, or you didn't get along with the increase in linearity - because a perception of less blow through in the initial part of the stroke points to your replacement shock (whatever that may be) having a LESS linear spring curve than the Corset/Fox combo it replaced. A coil shock is significantly MORE linear in its spring curve than any of the air springs discussed here (with the Corset being closer to it than average, although still imperfect), and the SB66c's leverage curve actually works very well with a coil shock - which to me reinforces the setup or perception issue. The only exception here would be if the Vivid R2C you reference is a coil, in that case it will certainly be superior in both bump absorption and support.
For whatever it's worth, I have no allegiance to any of the companies mentioned, and I run coil shocks on all my bikes.
