Yeah, I guess. There wasn’t a terrible vibe or anything, and it played pretty smooth. Some of you guys who are really sensitive to vibe may have found some.
I think the Madhouse Epic is the best stacked yoyo I’ve ever played. However, it is a super noisy yoyo as a result.
I’ve never had any Z-Stacks get “abnormally” noisy. I will agree they make noise, but it’s not like the Epic. Wow, Epic is loud.
As far as “how fun are stacks”: To each their own. I do have stacked yoyos so I have options. I currently lack both the skill and creativity to really effectively utilize them. Again, I like having options.
I love the DNA with its stock hubstacks. It’s smooth and just the right weight. The details were perfectly executed.
When I put Z-stacks on, it was much noisier and heavier (+4.2g). You get a gentle rumble from the big stacks. Really took away from the “luxury” I credit the DNA with. Didn’t last too long for me; I swapped them back out. I wouldn’t mind selling mine.
However if you want to grab the stacks and play that way, it is fun and easy. It think it plays great for that. Just seems like a waste of a DNA.
I did not like the DNA with no stacks. But if you have a DNA, it’s pretty inexpensive to try.
