Great setup. You are saying that you bought webcam, mic and speakers because your MBP was mounted below desk. You know that you could save all that money by simply putting laptop on the desk right? Just admit that you wanted the best stuff for the sake of it :) One question that I have is what headphones are you using? Speakers during Slack/Skype call are not the best solution.

What's the purpose of building an office setup at home if you can't get the best stuff? Putting the laptop on the desktop is worthless for me since I don't interact with it. I only use it for its computing power. Also, I do music production and some recordings so using the built-in webcam and sound card wasn't compatible with my setup (speakers+mic).

For meeting, I just use the mic and the speakers. I do rarely use headphones, but when I do m I use the Parrot Zik 3 ones. Yep, I like bass ;)
