I don't want to disappoint everyone but I'm not hopeful, all the cubes yuxin have been producing recently haven't been great and YJ make the only two good 6x6s, I hope they prove me wrong though.
Not gonna lie the little magic 7x7 m is probably the best budget 7x7. It has great turning kind of like the Hayes, but it just needs a good setup to be good. I actually prefer it over any other 7x7. Don't @ me, but I am excited for all of the new yuxin cubes, especially magnetic little magic cubes, and the hayes 5 and 6.

@Daxton Brumfield I will @ you because the YuFu v2 M is better and cheaper

Ummmmm the Shadow? Until the MGC came out, that was every top solver's main.
I have the YuShi v2 M and its actually a great cube, like the Aoshi GTS but not absolute trash. Its very comparable with the shadow in performance since its far faster but the only problem is the stability leaves a bit to be desired. Still a great cube though

It has nice turning, and as much as I wish 69mm was a good size it is way too big for me. The 67mm of the Hayes and ylm are much better. The spark is probably the best but I don't like its smooth controllable turning as much as the yuxin cubes fast and snappy turning.
Despite the fact that I have been designated as the Yj fanboy I enjoyed my time with the Hays when I mained it, there is only 1 slight medium big problem
WHY ON EARTH ARE THE 2ND LAYER MAGNETS THE STRONGEST?
Honestly, it's the main reason I switched to the spark

I never liked the shadow, it is just too slow, my times were always slow on it and before the MGC I used the aoshi GTSM but my ranking of 6x6s now is:
MGC
Yushi v2M
Aoshi GTSM
Shadow
Yuxin red M (but I haven't actually tried it so IDK)

I think that your problem with speed was overlubing. The shadow with little/no lube is quite fast but if you put just a little bit too much it becomes too slow. Mine has almost no lube in it aside from like 4 drops of silk and it fast enough for me to still get good times
