Really nice setup you got there brother. What’s the resolution and refresh rate on that monitor? Looks super clean. Love my MX Master mice and Max 2s. Do you use them wired ever?

Monitor is 4K 60fps. My main use case is photo editing. It's not the end all be all monitor, but it's very nice and built expressly to work with Apple computers. I really enjoy it. The Max's are version 1 with the lightning cable. I haven't listed to them wired before. I don't think the lossless audio works with wired on v1's

Ok, that makes sense. Looks great, dude.

What's your headphone stand? Looks like it holds it upright without putting pressure on the band.

It's a Benks stand. Doesn't put pressure on the mesh. Just the hard part of the band.

Does it really performs better in your workflows?

Absolutely. My main usage is photo processing software with very large files. My Mac Mini simply could not handle it. Constant rainbow wheel of doom. Studio doesn't break a sweat.

I'm looking into getting a mac mini. Which chip did you have, and what specs did you go with Mac studio?
