Hi all,

I purchased an Open Wheeler seat a couple of years back and started out with a T300RS and a TH8A shifter. I gradually upgraded and now have mostly Fanatec components. My most recent purchase is a bass shaker set up comprised of 2 BTS-1s along with a Aiyima A07 amplifier. I've not seen many builds with my specific seat (it doesn't seem to be a particularly popular option) and I therefore struggled quite a bit to find the most efficient way to connect the bass shakers, as I couldn't find a single example. I ended up buying VESA screen mounts, sanding down the paint and using a metal epoxy to weld the brackets to the rig to which I attached the bass shakers. If anyone has that seat and is looking for advice, please send me a PM and I'll be happy to provide guidance!

It's definitely not a high-end build like many of the ones that I see on here, but I just spent a couple of hours with cable management finally and I was pretty happy with the results. I'm thinking of modding the pedals a little bit as a next step to improve the feel, but that'll be it for now otherwise!

I play AC and in VR exclusively.

Edit: if anyone's wondering, I'm using Amazon Basics yoga blocks under the frame of the rig for vibration dampening. In the front, I have caster wheels. I run the amplifier at 50% and it's been more than enough.
