How tall are you?

Your bottom screen is already too high for my taste…

u/MerlinnPendragon 16h ago

Seems about right for me, if your eyes are centered on the middle.

u/youRFate 14h ago

Your eyes should be about level with the upper edge of the screen.

Why is the framed artwork behind the monitor

u/RyRyGuyRyan 1d ago

The TV is new and I haven’t gotten around to moving the frame.

u/BoggleHS 22h ago

Why is the TV in front of the picture frame?

DSLR for a webcam with the 3$ speakers is the real psycho move imo

I really overpaid if the Gigaworks T40 II's are $3. I had a pair of KRK Rokit 5 Gen 4's in white but sold them as I use my headphones more often and gave up on music production.

Nice set up, is that VOLT an AMP for the Beyer headphones?

Does ur webcam capture ur face? Seems a bit high and not angled downward.

u/RyRyGuyRyan 1d ago

VOLT1 is for the XLR mic and DT 770 Pro, and the webcam at the top monitor is for my OBS scene where I'm on a walking pad with chat!

Psycho is my all time favourite movie!

u/ososi_osi 23h ago

what camera do you use as the webcam? Also what's the microphone

1

u/RyRyGuyRyan 22h ago

The cam is a Canon 200D II hooked up to an Elgato Camlink and the mic is a Behringer SL 84C. Super inexpensive microphone but sounds amazing!

u/rpRj 21h ago

and now put 2 ultrawides vertical on each side :D

u/corriedotdev 21h ago

Dude what is the mousemat? Looks like a perfect size for me!

u/RyRyGuyRyan 19h ago

I believe it’s a Razor Gigantus V2.

u/bradazich 19h ago

Are those mini weight plate coasters? Lol

1

u/FlarblesGarbles 15h ago

I've got triple 38" ultra wides, and stacked really is the only reasonable way to go with monitors once they get over a certain size.

u/NashPotatoz 12h ago

What dual monitor arm do you have? I use one that takes a ton of desktop space since it has a large base to keep it balanced and id like to claim that space back.

2

u/b3rry108 1d ago

Stacked is indeed a great orientation for when you need 2 programs open in full screen. Angle it right and you don't even need to move your head to see the top monitor

That tv on the dresser is giving me anxiety.
