    Excellent video Adam. Just subed. I don't have or use a MacBook, but I recently bought a NUC styled computer that included Thunderbolt 4 connectivity. TB is all new to me and lately I been testing numerous TB and USB 3.2 cables for workable data speed. I what an adventure that has been. I needed more ports, and just recently purchased the Echo 11. I needed a good blend of both TB 4 and USB 3.2 ports. Then I saw your review of the Echo 20. The 20 would be the ideal ticket for me, but a bit harder to justify a 30% jump in price. I'm still on the fence about the 11, but it may be what I have to settle for and it will certainly get the job done. The most annoying thing of all the docks I've tried, is the host port being in the front. Glad to see a few companies now putting it on the back - where it should be - and that's exactly where it is on the 20. Anyway, good review of the essential specs and features of the two docks. Now I have to decide to keep the 11 or return it and exchange it for the 20. Tough choice. :)

    The 20 is definitely worth it. All the extra usb ports and the rca and the nvme slot plus the cable on back makes it worth it to me.

    Hi, is the performance of both docks the same? Like slowing down external ssds and hd backup discs, thank you

    @@adamtalkstech it seems to take up a rather large vertical space... if it is too hot it might not be good to put external hard drives on it to save space... asking for a friend of a friend HAHA

    ha yeah I don't put anything on top of external SSDs when I use them typically since they can get kind of hot anyways.@@marckyokay

    Hi, could you test how many monitors (non-mirrored) you can get through these docks? I'd love to know if say for example the echo11 hdmi could power 1 hdmi monitor and 1 or maybe even 2 monitors via the thunderbolt extensions.

    It's going to depend on what your computer specs are. 3 should be no problem but check the specs on their website to see the different number of displays that it supports.

    @@adamtalkstech Thanks for the fast reply. The website says up to two 6k monitors. It doesn't say whether they would be mirrored. Nor does it say if for example, 3 2k monitors would work (this is what I am looking for). Running an M1 max atm.
