Pair of Arcade Pad 6 (Duo-RX) controllers on ebay

I linked these in case anybody's interested in picking up some Duo-RX style controllers.  They're much too pricey for me at the moment, but I'd like to get one someday and see if it fits my hands any better.  Does anybody have one and prefer it over the Avenue Pad 6 or the Hori one?

I don't have one of these, but I have PC-FX pads which are the same thing.

I prefer the Ave 6 myself.

My friend Eric got one with his Duo RX,and it totally sucked to me compared to the original Ave 6 Pad.

Yeah, I noticed those controllers on eBay last night. Too pricey for me as well. I'd sooner put the money towards some mods for my Duo and the avenue pad 6.

From what I've heard they aren't as good as an Avenue 6...which is pretty pathetic...

Sooo, I'm not sure. Are you saying you don't like the Avenue Pad 6?

Why would I? I mean, I've certainly used worse, but its not a very good pad. If these things are not as nice as an A6, then they really aren't worth $50 each.

They look like they could be comfortable. I like the larger d-pad compared to the Avenue 6. I wouldn't pay that price unless they were new though.

You guys are bumming me out a bit, telling me that the RX pads suck.  I'm with SignOfZeta - the Avenue Pad 6 is mediocre at best, and a little uncomfortable in long marathons.  I'm not too worried about it though, as I don't often play 6-button games anyway.

I've never seen a grey d-pad on an RX controller. I wouldn't be surprised if its using parts harvested from a PC-FX pad.

Your right BT. I think it may even be one. It seems a lot bigger than the other one and I don't think that its the camera angle

hehe. Yeah, sorry I was just being facetious.    I haven't heard a great many things about the Avenue Pad 6. Though I have heard praise for it.

Personally, I really like the Avenue 6. It's my personal favorite Turbo pad, though I haven't used every pad ever made.

The minimalist in me likes the original Turbo/PCE pads, but two buttons just isn't enough for many games. I like the D-Pad on the Ave 6 better, too.

It's not. PC-FX pads don't have turbo buttons for buttons I-VI. They probably just used a D-Pad from an FX controller.

Thats what I figured, which makes it less valuable. I don't know what those pads usually go for on their own now days, but I'm pretty sure that they were sold seperately in their own box at one point.
