    Stacked is soo good for music production if you have speakers on the side

      not any better than horizontal tbh

      @@SaltSpirits if you only use a 24 inch monitor there is nothing to do. If you use an ultrawide your speaker placement is off then compared with the distance of the triangle and sound bounces off the back of the monitor.

      Can see that, im rocking a massive 42 inch lgc2. Monitors on the side of that. And then my 2nd monitor goes on the left of my left studio monitor. Otherwise u cant get the stereo image right

      ​@@SaltSpiritsfor music production, verticality makes actually more sense and makes it more confortable. Its the exception, for any other task, horizontal is better

    This is by far the best screen configuration but you need to use ultra wide 21/9 screens, lower the bottom one and tilt it back 15 degrees, lower the top one and tilt it forward 15 degrees too. Nothing beats this configuration, WAY more desktop real estate and a contained price, love it so much. And no neck breaking !

    It works great for my set up. My desk is only 48 inches wide and I already had a 32 inch curved monitor on it with two studio speakers on either side. So my only option for an extra monitor would be a new desk or to go vertical, and that is what I did. Stacked a 27 inch monitor on top. What really pulls them together though is to find a wallpaper that can span both the top and bottom screen nicely.

    I’m going for the hunter’s argument- you won’t have much neck strain having to turn your head side to side but if you have to tilt your head up to see something… you’ll start to feel the strain a bit. We’re hunters at heart- evolved to track and survey landscapes- it’s only recent in our evolution that we’ve started to need to incline our heads upwards so much. So yeah- horizontal is better

    Thats how my setup is and i love it so much just having to pear my head up alightly to watch a movie or something instead of moving my whole head to the side.

  • @GrannyBender

    I'm tall, so this setup is just perfect for me: primary monitor on the top at about eye level and secondary one at the bottom.
    Definitely less strain on my neck and helped me keep a better posture.

    It didn't take long for Reach to fall: our enemy was ruthless. Efficient. But they weren't nearly fast enough. For you had already passed the torch. And because of you, we found Halo, unlocked its secrets, shattered our enemy's resolve. Our victory - your victory - was so close, I wish you could have lived to see it. But you belong to Reach. Your body, your armor - all burned and turned to glass. Everything… except your courage. That, you gave to us. And with it, we can rebuild.

    So I have this and it works so much better with a 21:9 34" or bigger monitors. I have my Polk TSI200 in line with the top monitor and a 27" 16:9 monitor to the right of the bottom 21:9 monitor.
    With a 21:9 monitor having to windows open and side snapped looks SO MUCH better that on a 16:9 and if you have a 31:9 it's like having to full 16:9 monitors on one screen.

    na it works depending on your work flow., I have 3,. left vertical is 4k , stack right top is 4k, bottom of stack is 2k gaming monitor. But use them across 2 computers. 👌😂 top stack 4k is primary on a workstation and co-uses bottom gaming monitor as a preview screen., but the 2k gaming monitor is primary with 4k vertical to the left as secondary on my main gaming machine.
