I wouldn't look at the systems as "high speed" but highly accurate
Seed placement wich should help with even emergence and great stand counts
With the ability to go a couple mph faster if needed!
And from Wat I saw on my 20/20 I would have frame mounted GFX row cleaners
Instead of unit mounted floating cleaners with clean sweep
And hydraulic down force is a must,for its instant ability to adjust and the fact
That you will have weigh pins and rums on every row and if you spend time watching
What the 20/20 is telling you you can try different speeds and settings and see what
Works for you!
I could never find a happy medium between speeds over 6 mph and different row cleaner
Pressure/depth too much unit vibration in my opinion and found the same reaction with row cleaners
In the raised position most likely from hairpinning,rootballs and dirt clods
This was with a 2015 case ih 24 row central fill 1255 precision planter
