I am not a roux user, but the DaYan TengYun V2 M( my main ) can be customized to a variety of preferences. I think there are 48 settings on my TengYun V2 and the M slices are really good.
P.S : It is also as quiet as a cat trying to steal milk from your house

I also main the Tengyun v2, but any cube that has customizable tensions and magnets could work for that.

I don't have a cat but I DO have that cube. I liked the V1 slightly better but that just may be because I don't have it set up perfectly yet.

This is clearly not referencing my cat because the only time he isn’t saying something is when he’s knawing on something plastic in our house.

but seriously, You think the V2 is extremely quiet? I was under the impression it was significantly louder than the v1, which IMO is the quietest cube ever.

It doesn't really matter, as long as the cube has good M moves.

So it sounds like something matters. It seems the question is what cube has good M moves.

I have both and think the v2 is noticeably louder but I haven’t done any decibel tests. Do you have any cube recommendations for Roux?

I have never done a roux solve but my original tengyun has great M slices and since the magnets are lighter I believe that contributes to that particular feel. Analogously but with the qualifier I’m not a roux solver is my new GuHong v4. I did notice how effortless and smooth my M based Z & H perms are to execute when I first got it.

If you had to say between the GuHong and the Tengyun cubes which one M slices better and which one do you prefer in general?

Regarding ease of M slices, definitely the Tengyun. I just did a bunch of H, Z & U perms on my GuHong and it wasn't as effortless as I originally thought after a side by side comparison. So take that recommendation with a grain of salt. The Tengyun on the other hand never disappoints in this category.

In general also the Tenguyn. I am really enjoying the GuHong for speed solving right now and it's super light feel is really agreeing with my turning style; i've done hundreds of solves on it lately and its been my main over the last few weeks. I mainly use my Tengyun for casual and BLD because of how quiet it is; not sure why i've restricted it like that in retrospect.

I think you should buy a GAN 356RS in indonesia is only $10

Edit: that's not from cubicle or scs

The Gan RS is pretty much irrelevant now, since there are cheaper cubes that are magnetic and better

I love my tengyun v1, it turns so easy and is so quiet. I’d love to try the guhong out too after I saw some first reviews recently.

I’d have to magnetize that too for it to be used. Why would you recommend that for Roux?

You would have to magnetize it. I think it has the stability of jello so don't buy.

 

[GAN CUBER]

It is bad get the rs3m 2020 or qiyi ms 3x3

 

[MJS Cubing]

Neither are bad, both are very good. A lot of people like the ms and the same for the rs3m. I'm pretty sure the RS3M is better, although I haven't tried either cube. I think the main difference is price, with the ms being $1 cheaper, but it is worth mentioning that the ms doesn't have spring elasticity adjustment. The rs3m magnets are also very light, but for another $1 TC has a magnet kit for increasing that strength.

I was saying the gan 356 r is pretty bad

oh ok. You didn't quote anything so I was confused.

I do really like jello but I’ll follow your direction and avoid. What would you recommend in its place?

If you already have the tengyun I would recommend that.(tengyun v1)

I’ll buy another tengyun v1 then, ha. What would you say about the Valk 3 elite? Most of the top people in competitions I learn from have used it.

The valk elite has the 96 magnet scheme which I hear is too strong for roux, but you can choose not to have center-edge magnets. I personally prefer the valk m and so does SPV
