Yeah, metal cases tend to give a bit of a shallow sound, especially wedge style cases. Cases that are more simplistic with cone feet actually tend to be more resonant, possibly because much of the bottom is suspended from the desk, so the case is allowed to resonate more freely. Also, the layer of metal between the bottom of the PCB and the desk is a lot thinner than a wedge style custom.Brett MacK wrote: ↑Those sound nice, but you can't beat the sound in the original case. The one in this video sounds almost a bit high pitched compared to blues in a kb101, or an omnikey. Ir'a crazy how case construction changes the sound of a keyboard.
My Monarch with SKCM Ambers is one of my nicest sounding and feeling keyboards, custom or not, and its case is quite simple.
Wedge cases give you a crisp but short typing sound.
