The best of the best! The crème de la crème!

Personally, I prefer the Salmons.

This is the board I harvested my salmons off of for my "perfect" Matias Ergo Pro board. Though it is a great board in it's own right.

I wish Apple would go nuts and reproduce this or the AEK II in all it's vintage glory. They have the resources to do it. Never going to happen. :(

Indeed! I always enjoy these videos! There seems to be a consensus among people that oranges are better than salmons.

Agreed - I really enjoy all of your videos! I’m not sure if it was intentional, but the fact that the only audio is the sound of the switches really helps me focus on it.

Very nice. Did you need to do a full restoration and replace the foam?

Also wanted to let you know I think the bar graph is missing for tactility:

My personal review of that personal review is it's bullshit. Model F tactility at only 70%? What, prey tell, ranks 80, 90 or 100? Crushing diamonds? :lol:

Switches that you haven't tried but OP has, maybe :roll: Certainly not impossible considering your sample pool.

Some modern MX clones are notorious for having extreme tactility, for example; OP gives Durock T1 Clears a 9/10 for tactility in another of their videos.
