I'm struggling to visualise this setup - it sounds like the bottom monitor is tilted within a height of a few inches, and I can't understand how it could be useful to look at an almost flat monitor?

I wish I could move the top monitor farther down and tilt the bottom monitor more. The top monitor is still a bit high for me. But, tilting the bottom monitor more isn't great either because of the view angles. I was thinking about grabbing a couple of 4k 17" monitors to replace the bottom 27" monitor with. It would let me bring the top monitor down and the bottom monitors wouldn't have to tilt so much.

Do they make ultrawide 17" monitors? :)

Thanks for sharing the images, I get it now :)

This is an interesting layout, but I'm not sure it's for me; the main monitor looks to be too high up for me, and the perspective on the tilted monitor would irk me (I just tested this out with my laptop).
