It’s arrived!

nice combination, man.

This looks really clean. Where did you get the cable?

TGoo3e · May 9, 2019, 9:45pm

Thanks. Coolcables (UK)

Got some sorbothane on order to beef it out and dampen it even more. Thock

Ooh boy.

I’m just going to rub it all day long. Is that okay @norbauer ?

Also, i feel kinda sad that I don’t have more cases with this premium finish. We need all cases to be made this way. It’s luxurious, yet I don’t feel like I have to treat it with kid gloves. I guess the limitation is that the case design would probably need to be seamless.

anyone else getting click / ping / sticky springs on newer fc660c’s? Will this go away or should I try lubing the pcb as tusing suggested :o

Won’t go away - do lube the PCB, it’s a really nice improvement anyways.

The spring click seems to be much more prominent on the new japan fc660c’s than on my other topre boards. This may be highlighted by the fact that this board is also silenced. I will try lubing the pcb with either mechlube 2 or Super Lube 21010 Synthetic Grease

I don’t really find any issues with the build quality of my new quiet FC660C. Maybe I’m just not that picky about my topre

Le Monolith (x JustSystems RealForce)

Well your post made me get a Motorsport one too :))

Any ideea where can I get a sorbothane sheet to put it in ?

pixelpusher · May 14, 2019, 12:23pm

Probably Amazon. I had the one I bought from
@Manofinterests a while back so I’m not sure what size to get from there.

Check post #343 by WXYdd. I got the one he mentioned and it fits great.

Here’s a sound check with a stock low noise FC660C

Some pics of the Aperture:

It has a very satisfying finish! Love just rubbing my hands over it, lol.

Ordered a silent FC660C just this week and it finally came so here’s a pic.

Was debating if I should upload since it doesn’t highlight the rose part of the case but I’m not sure when I’ll get around to taking photos in a more natural/white light.

All praise has been said and indeed worthy. Truly a heavy beast and I love it. So shiny! Need to find an artisan or 2 to really spice it up.

I finally got around to taking proper photos of the Royal Wrinkle and Enigma Gray finishes on this design.

More of them on the product page.

As of the moment, I believe I have at least a few of the Enigma Gray in stock.

Rob27shred · June 15, 2019, 1:51am

For reals!

So tempted to pickup a 3rd Heavy 6…
