  • I looked at it before, but dismissed it because of the price and general weirdness. However, the more I look at it, the more it seems like a good fit. I’m not super keen on Omron switches as I’ve had entirely too many start double clicking over the years (the optical switches in the Tartarus Pro are a selling point for me), but I suppose I can always replace them.

    Since you said you have the Classic, how do you feel about the thumb button? I suspect I’ll end up using buttons for movement in most games rather than the thumbstick, in which case I’ll still want jump to be tied to my thumb. In that sense, the Tartarus having the button under the thumb makes more sense to me, but maybe I could get used to the Cyborg.






  • I guess I hadn’t really considered just building tall cabinets instead of hanging things, that’s probably the simplest of all. I have dust collection taken care of, but ventilation is on my list. There’s a door and two (terrible) windows, so I can make it happen, but it’s not there yet. I am also thinking of adding a vent to the ductwork that runs through the room, but without insulation, that seems like it might do more harm than good.





  • In terms of FR, the HD560s are quite good, but I feel like they compress the dynamics a bit. Probably wouldn’t be the only pair I use (but I’d always check on multiple anyway), but they are hard to beat in terms of price vs performance. The Beyers can be good for treble analysis in particular, but I have a big head and they are just not comfortable for me. Still, those would be my two picks.
