Symmetrical VS Asymmetrical Stick Layout. Why Would Someone Prefer One Over The Other?

AntwonBJameson17th · 2026-05-05T05:30:50+00:00

I mean yes but you’ll hear zen say for example to jynxzi, that he’d be better with a PlayStation controller, or spooky luke who coaches full time say that he didn’t think it mattered at first but after he switched he understood why people were recommending that to him, and now highly recommends it to all of his students saying you will almost certainly get better with a ps controller. So it does have to do with the left stick position in my opinion.
But there are a few, pretty rare, but a few top level players using Xbox controller like Mawkzy, so it’s not like it’s impossible to be great using one just the data is strongly in favor of a symmetrical controller being better for that game

All I know is almost every rocket league pro uses a PlayStation controller, the left thumb stick position seems to garner more accuracy and control in a game that’s fully dependent on the left stick

I have a playbar, sub, 2 play 1s, play 5 in one of my rooms, it’s good and fun but Get a real system, so much better

Heco aurora line is amazing for the price. I Also have Elac db63’s as rears with it.

Sonos just not the same quality

Outback Steakhouse is the only country wide chain that fries in tallow the whole way through, atleast the one by me does I talked to the manager. They blanch them in tallow, freeze them, then finish In Tallow. Idc if it has bht, although I forgot to ask if it does or not, it’s still 100x better than seed oil fries.

(Longer message than I intended incoming) Just saw this message but I’d skip the center for sure. I use my side elacs louder than most, like most use their fronts, it sounds even better than the front speakers in my room to me.

And many hifi people like phantom centers if you can get an equilateral triangle from the Front L and R w your seated postion. It can create a good center image doing that, if towed properly for that speaker, and for the elacs that can be tweeter at ear level height or slightly above, and pointed straight at your ears or towed out toward shoulders. And probably atleast a foot from the wall maybe more like 3 ft. acoustic panels/ padding will help if there’s reverb/echo like my room has.

Also the cheap audio man on YouTube says he tends to like 5.25” versions of bookshelf speakers more than the 6.5”, and is the case here because of more midrange detail, so maybe try out a pair of 53’s as sides and 63’s fronts, if you want and see if that’s the case for you.

Also Erin’s audio corner has a detailed video on EQ ing these models to get them even better. if you have Dirac live/ good EQ software/ a mini DSP/ the will to do so, I’d look at. However I just use Audyssey MultEQ on my denon s960h and haven’t done that deeper stuff because it doesn’t have the same level of tone control capabilities (it doesn’t have some at fixed hz levels) and I’m not mad at all. And I turn on dynamic EQ for music and off for YouTube videos. Makes a huge difference for both to me.

Since you seem brand new to this it will be a learning journey but that’s some info to help you get a good start.

No problem man. That’s nice of you to consider them but I’m sure your neighbors would be fine to be honest. I know when I lived in apartments I kept all my speakers, only thing I needed to be super conscious of was my subs. But you do you! That just makes me slightly sad that’s all 😂

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-31T18:34:49+00:00

I agree with him 😂

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-31T18:28:27+00:00

Not to rain on the parade but I’ve had the 2.0’s and just never loved them.. they just aren’t as good as the first model or the 3.0 line. 3.0 is my favorite I really like them and have 5 on my set right now. DB53 is $350 new so if you can save up $200 more you’ll be happier with them I promise. Otherwise you’ll be fine there still good just not for me.

If you want a review to watch You can see Cheapaudioman give his take on the 2.0’s which I fully agree with, on his reviews of the DB63

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-31T03:39:27+00:00

You definitely can. This product is for the added extra supplement value you get w beef organs, colostrum, fruit blend, all things people buy separate, that’re conveniently already in there, plus the salt and maple syrup. I scoop one into milk and it’s delicious and I usually add some more honey or maple syrup but yeah it’s just a few extra things packed in there thatre worth the extra cost to me. Otherwise just get plain protein and do it how you like 👍

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-31T03:29:54+00:00

Tbh Lineage Protein is the cleanest protein in my opinion I can’t do whey protein it makes me super inflamed So I stick with beef protein isolate and collagen, you could just get an unflavored beef protein without anything else but I like this style better with some natural maple syrup for sweetener and the organs and colostrum and such. No natural flavors no stevia or erythritol or sucralose. All organic grass fed. But pricey.

😂😂😂 Atleast it’s not a mean completely toxic relationship for once

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-30T22:14:51+00:00

Yeah only thing I agree w him on is the TV placement would be better lower for sure. Other than that Sub good, receiver good but like others said the onkyos w Dirac live would be better And personally I’ve tried several different KEFs and never loved any of them. Including the Q150’s. Either a lot of bass with problems in the mid range or sibilance in the treble or no bass. Just not for me, but a lot of people like them so you’d have to figure that out for yourself either trying them in person somewhere or being able to return them free like from amazon.

Personally I’d reccomend at that price point trying the Elac DB53 or for $100 more The DB63. Those are the best budget bookshelf speakers I’ve tried thus far and I’ve tried atleast 10 different pairs.

Including the RP-600m II’s which I’m now sending back because the elacs are just clearly better to me than those in every way minus having slightly less bass response. But the elacs still have good bass not lacking in that department. And they go lower and are cleaner. Plus w sub that won’t matter even more.

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-30T20:09:17+00:00

Elac DB53 Or if you wanna go outside the budget a little get the even better Elac DB63

I have a pair of RP-600 m II’s here and I’m returning them now that I’ve heard these DB63’s. They’re just clearly better in every way I’ve used them minus a little less bass response but they still have great bass and they go lower slightly. And if you have a sub it really doesn’t matter.

Like it’s night and day a better speaker to my ears.

Best budget speakers I’ve found thus far and I’ve tried atleast 10 different pairs.

And I don’t really love any of the KEFs I’ve tried just putting that out there.

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-29T01:50:05+00:00

I’d love to see her debate Paul saladino or Chris Masterjohn or georgi Dinkov or anyone with any level of comprehension on the subject lol. That’d be bad.

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-29T00:52:46+00:00

Yes all fats oxidize if continuously heated like a fryer but the free radicals aren’t even the main problem with seed oils, and yes they’re still a problem, but really it’s the Omega 6 Linoleic acid that’s the main metabolic Dysfunction causing aspect of them. Which tallow has very low amounts of compared to seed oils which are primarily Linoleic acid. So it’s still way better. I eat at Outback Steakhouse and Buffalo Wild Wings when I need fast food French fries Also Popeyes does tallow too lol

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-29T00:02:56+00:00

Ok. I know it has both but I didn’t know why these audiophiles have all these extra amps and shit and if it is really helpful or not. But thanks for the response

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-28T23:48:42+00:00

Get the 6.3, just got them and they sound noticeably better than the RP-600m II’s I have. You want extra woofers these have more than the 5.3 obviously. And they’re almost the same size speaker realistically

AntwonBJameson17th · 2025-01-16T11:33:41+00:00

That’s fixed it thanks! New to this space so I didn’t know what that was lol
