Previously, I had SA Chocolatier on this keeb - and it looked amazing. It sounded… rough:
What a difference! The heavy tactiles with bad stabs and chunky keys were just too overwhelming a cacophony for this enclosure and aluminum plate. It looks great, but makes a dreadful din.
The Frozen Silents are some of the most quiet switches I own, but I think they actually sound fantastic when amplified by the BBOX. I really like this new config a lot more than I expected to. It even looks better than I thought it would:
Hard to really capture the colors with a phone camera; they’re a bit exaggerated here.
Gotta say, this is more satisfaction than I ever expected to get from my humble GK61x.
