I love my white basilisk, but would've loved wireless

timchuonOP•

ohhh nice! i actually have the white basilisk but i use the num pad so often that i needed more keys haha

Logitech G305 is pretty sweet if you're in the market for a new one

2
timchuonOP•

timchuonOP•

I imagine this is what a fly sees before hearing the zap

Speakers?

Audoengine A2. I love mine, combine with a good soundcard.

Wireless? I was looking at these the other day but wanted wired but couldn’t find them anywhere in stock.

2
timchuonOP•

oh shoot idk if they have a wireless but i wouldve definitely loved that over wired!

ryslegit•

I really wanted to love the Audioengine A2s but they just did not sound as good as I was expecting. They seemed almost perfect for the size too. Ended up returning and going with a passive setup.

1
timchuonOP•

really? hmmmm i thought they sounded great-little lackluster bass but it's hard to find small, white desktop speakers at that price point!

1
ryslegit•

The pair I had were really bad in the mids. Any kind of rock music sounded super muddied and echo like. The $100 gaming headphones I had sounded so much better I couldn’t go back to those speakers. Unfortunate because I really wanted to like them and they were the perfect size for my desk.

2
earlston•

We’re they also white? Do you have a recommendation?

1
ryslegit•

There’s The Kanto S2 speakers I heard are supposed to be competitive to the A2+ and about the same price. If you want something more premium, I’ve seen good things about Kef speakers but they are quite higher in price.

3
Xenro•

I bought a Klipsch Promedia 2.1 from Costco for $100. It sounds better than A2s for some reason.

1
ryslegit•

For the total price of the A2+, I was able to get Klipsch R-41Ms and a Smsl amp for the same price. So much better

3
MorgUK•

For me I had to curve down the bass at the low end to prevent any boomyness then they sounded awesome. To each is own though!

Was the Chair worth it?

Agreed. I will never understand how people think a racing bucket seat design from a Honda Civic is supposed to be ergonomic for someone who sits at a desk for long periods.

Here is a great affordable ergonomic chair. I’ve been using it for 3-4 years and it works wonders for my posture.

gotta have that gamer asthetic man.

Personally, I love my Secretlab Omega.

Cyph3rXX7•

Me too! I’ve had mine for over 2 years now. Plus I WFH and have no regrets. Sure it’s not a Herman Miller Aeron but I also don’t have a couple thousands just laying around.

1
timchuonOP•

glad you guys agree! it's great!

4
GrowingDark•

I've had mine for a couple years now, many hours sitting in it. I've been perfectly happy with it. I'm a big and tall guy and every other chair in this price point I've used has fallen apart within the year. The Titan is built like a tank

4
timchuonOP•

that's awesome! i rarely hear about the titan so im glad it's worked out for you!

timchuonOP•

you know i love it! super comfortable, lots of adjustments you can play with, napping is comfortable haha warranty is nice, customer service was great to me-i'm happy with it!

spoonmonkey_•

I wanna know this too

2
brokenheartdonor•

I love mine!!! So for me yes. Especially with working from home as of late.

5
timchuonOP•

i love mine as well! i'm really happy with it overall-i know lots of mixed opinions but im at my desk wfh like everyone else for super long periods and it's been fine-little hot during summer but usually a sign to get up for a bit anyway

vincanzo•

That's why I got the softweave version. If I got the PU Leather, you'd have to peel me off the chair with a spatula. I sweat way too much when it's hot.

1
timchuonOP•

HAHA! i was debating about the softweave too; how's the overall comfort/extended sitting periods on that one?

2
Tunafish01•

Yes, the people saying it is not worth or buy another chair have no clue what they are talking about.

TakeThatRisk•

I agree. I love my titan.

Looks awesome. Speakers in front of the monitors would drive me crazy though.

5
timchuonOP•

ahh you're right! i need a bigger desk-was even looking into standing pole options but i'd only fit one on the left side it's killin me

1
tonsoffun49•

I know what you mean. I have the same issues with my desk trying to position speakers correctly and my monitors and still have it authentically pleasing.

2
Cactus_Humper•

This exact problem is why I was forced into a stacked setup for my monitors :( desperately need more space so I can fit a bigger desk lol

You must have the circadian rhythm of a drunk relative at a Jamaican resort wedding.

timchuonOP•

hahahha well i can't disagree 😉

1
Guydo•

What in the heck is that cable extension doing?

3
timchuonOP•

hahah uhhh...which one??

1
Civil-Earth•

I’m guessing the GPU one. It’s an interesting way to route it and it feels off.

1
Guydo•

Both are at pretty interesting angles. Love the RGB though.

1
Civil-Earth•

The other one I get though. He wants to show the cables he purchased and routing them behind would reduce that. I think it might look cleaner tho. But personal taste.

2
sunnglases•

Love the setup but you need a bigger desk. The speakers covering the 2 inches of screen would kill me haha

3
timchuonOP•

100% correct hahahh i push them off to the far corners if it wasn't for the photo-HOPEFULLY i can get a bigger desk but i have another desk for filming right where this photo was taken so it'd push against each other 😭

Wow!! Nice! Reminds me of Tron.

3
timchuonOP•

OH didn't even think about that haha thank you!

2
xelji•

May I ask for the models of the tube lights you’re using?

3
timchuonOP•

yes! they're the yongnuo rgb light sticks version 2!

1
TakeThatRisk•

Awesome clean setup :)

What's that white bar under ur monitor?

3
timchuonOP•

1
CmdMuffins•

Love the God Cards on top of the book shelf.

3
timchuonOP•

Thanks! added in some details 😉

1
ahendrix•

Loving this!! May I know what the light bar is? Seems as if it would mess with your eyes whilst gaming but I'm still learning hahaha

3
timchuonOP•

hahaha i turn it off! i mostly use it for photos/video but its the yongnuo rgb light sticks v2! same one is on my shelf

2
jungleunkraut•

Love the neon sign!

3
timchuonOP•

thanks! did wish it was a bit more clean cut though-maybe it's supposed to be like that if it's custom-bent?

1
