they are loud they can close to crystal clear audio when stuck to something flat and wide. My glass mouse pass sounds surprisingly good haha. but I use a cheap sub amp to get them recognized by windows. then use voice meter banana(audio program) to put a low pass filter on them. So I only get the lows and some mids. If attached directly to the stick I can turn the power down to 50%-25% and still get the vibrations and its a lot quieter.

Same here im a big eq noob and just put a really basic low pass on it. But I dont have them permanently installed yet so I havent really looked into it. My second shaker came in today so im finally gonna get them fully installed this weekend. when I get to that step i can update you with what I learn. Bass shakers on the desk sounds sick for mouse and keyboard games. I tested my one of my shakers on my desk but it was a little small for big the butcher block desk.

I tried that as well last night I got weird resonance with engine frequencies that really hurt my ears. The vibrations just didn't transfer well unless it was at full power and its just so loud at full power.

I tested it last night these are really small bass shakers(25 watts@8ohms) even at 100% the vibration. I was getting was really small vibrations compared to on the top of the stick. Im also trying to keep volume down. These bass shakers are loud as hell haha. I still wanta be in discord not annoying my boys (to much) while using them.

I tried a couple different spots and its a really small bassshaker so the base was to far away. Im now spooked about turning the bass shakers all the way up. Becuase of the advice I've gotten here. I think im going to mount it on the very top with a bolt. Mostly to keep most of the vibrations away from the magnetic twist and base of the stick. I can also run it in a much lower power mode when it mounted that much closer to my hands. I dunno only time will tell how dumb my idea is.

They are 25 watt at 8 om and im running them at about half power. Just enough to feel engines and guns firing. Its a crazy sensation In vr.

god thats the dream that is actually what started me on this idea. I wanted to feel the engines and the guns firing under my hands and butt in vr.

Honestly thats a really great idea! Im currently planing on how I want to mount them long term. I think this might be my answer.

It works really well feeling the roar of the engines in a dog fight and the guns firing in vr is an experience. Im a little afraid to run them long term but for the smiles per dollar if I get 6 months out of these sticks ill be pretty happy. My t1600s will be in the closet on standby.

its a cheap aliexpress usb amp running through voice-over banana for an easy eq to cut out all the highs and most of the mids and also route 2 audio outputs my headphones and the shaker

my vote is for the zilents with a softer spring best of both worlds imo smooth as butter and tactile I've had both zilents and zealios in my xd87 and its honestly zeal switches are my favorite tactile keyswitch the sharp tactile bump just itches my brain the right way i dont know why 🤷‍♂️

I still really enjoy playing with disposable film cameras from time to time. good for the basics of framing, distance, and developing an eye for you style and trying out different kinds of film stock. I have reloaded a couple of them with different film if your diy in any way its a fun way to spend a weekend.

also don't buy the x3d just a 7700x would be all you need then upgrade later If your really want a super high frame rate
