NK65 Entry Beige - Have you ever developed an appreciate for a board you didn't good initial impression?

Learning and discussion
1

So I received my NK65 Entry Beige board last week, and prior to that I was having my Tofu65, KBD67 and ID80, which the first 2 sounded really good to me. ID80 was decent enough…

Initially, when I loaded some switches into the NK65 entry, I was really disappointed because it sounded quite plasticky and had that a little hollowness to it. And it’s my first time having a white-ish coloured board, which I wasn’t really accustomed to because I always have a liking to black boards but wanted to give white colour a try.

Long story short, as the days passed, I am starting to like the NK65 entry…I am appreciating the Beige colour, kinda used to the loud sound - I made it even louder with some T1 switches. But overall super interesting that I kinda like this board now, and the price is really good. :stuck_out_tongue:

So… the lesson learnt is that, sometimes it takes awhile to develop an appreciation for things…and it just takes time!

Ooops, I actually have 8.

Realforce, Realforce R2, FC660c x 3, Novatouch x 2, FC980c

They’re all a bit different. 35g, 45g, 55g, some are stock, some stock silenced, some have hyperspheres, some have deskeys rings, some are for MX caps. I blame @norbauer for the most part. He makes lovely cases for Topre boards.

HHKB is my next purchase when the holy grail group buy starts.
