Failedz#0473
It's mad how different builds sound in real life. I did this exact build and it sounds like a different keyboard. Yours sounds way better lol
it sounded pretty similar in real life back when i still had the keyboard
agreed. I have pretty much the same build as someone else and theirs sounds so much better. A lot of factors go into play here though; the type of surface you are typing on, background noise, sound editing (if the video has any), and and reverberations from surroundings/surfaces.
damn this has got to be the best sonnet with mx blacks I've ever heard
Wait, this sounds really really good
boom bing
They don't have plate foam, did you make one. Anyway sounds real good.
i bought the foam on the mode store, not sure if they still sell it or not
how many actuations did you do to break the switches in before lubing them?
ive been using them lubed since 2021 occasionally moving them around until they became smooth
@@failedz that is to say max 30 million?
Only need 700k to 1mil to make them smoother. Anything more than that just 😗😗😗??
@@user-tw5pj2qs7tthats not possible
Does the sonnet actually sounds hollow in person? Esp on backspace row etc?
if you’re using iso top mount or top mount then yes, otherwise no
Mine doesn't. Just make sure you don't overtighten the top mount screws and that you get the copper internal weight.
Does the copper internal weight really make that much of a difference? I'm thinking of getting one@@mihneagogu1389
click clack
I have the same config on my Sonnet, but I feel like it doesn't sound as clacky as yours does. Could it possibly have something to do with how your mic interprets the sound of the board?
That's the issue with sound tests. It depends on the mic they are recording on AND on your own sound output device.
@@Ken_Jones yeah, i've noticed that from a lot of sound tests.
I noticed that you said that the board really benefits from plate foam, but I found that plate foam really overpowers the board's sound if that makes sense. Have you tried stacking the PCB on the plate foam instead of the silicone dampener? I've found that it really makes the board sound fuller without the need to dampen the sound with the silicone sheet.
@@JesusXina i took out the silicone and tried burger mounting with plate foam which i liked more than the silicone since it mutes the sound a lot and makes it stiff while keeping a similar higher pitched sound
@@failedz interesting, can you explain how you burger mounted it? I would like to try as well
@@JesusXina i took out the iso mount pads and added two o rings on each side of the screw when i screwed it in. i did not use the middle screw aswell
Black switches are pretty good, but its too loud in my opinion
It’s not the switches it’s the plate
@@itayron5684 maybe, but black switches still louder than red
There are many switches that are colored black, what black switches are you talking about?
It's preference. Some people like it this way including myself
You don't buy these boards to be quiet. If you want a quiet board it costs $30 with some silent switches
