My experience with most shakers was a little like that. A little bit cheesy, and not integrated well. That could be from cheap ones as well as possibly not being set up properly. Ime crowson and Clarke are worth looking at. But that boss platform is so much more. Some guys use them together. But imo, set up right it’s just a natural extension of the subs. I’ve seen videos of people spilling water glasses and knocking remotes on the floor. If you’re serious, I’d do a BOSS. It can easily be cheaper too.
