In search of the perfect THOCK

Hi guys!

So as the subjects says, I am in a search for a perfect deep thock sound of my new keyboard. And since this is my first build i am doing extensive search for a perfect switch! I am building a Zoom65 v2.5, it's been in my closet for months now, and it's time to start building!  :thumb:

In my search for a perfect switch i have read numerus posts, looked and a lot of youtube videos and soud tests and the conclusion is that there is just to many options. So I need your help! I have narrowed my choice to:

- KTT Strawberry
- WS Morandi

Is there anyone that had both options so they can give me a first hand review? Or you can comment on your experience on each of them. Or maybe my choice is not that good and you can add another switch to the mix?  ;D :-\

Furthermore I would like to know what would you recommeng - lube, lube + film. Or nothing since they are prelubed?

Thanks for the help!

Lube, Film, or Neither?
Lube and film can significantly alter the feel of a switch. Here's a breakdown:

Lube: Applying lube to the contact points can reduce friction and make the switch feel smoother. It can also help to dampen the sound.
Film: Adding a film can change the tactile feel of the switch, making it more or less pronounced.
Whether or not to lube or film depends on your desired feel. If you want a smoother and quieter switch, both lube and film can be beneficial. If you prefer a more tactile experience, you might consider only using lube.

Remember: Experimentation is key! You can always try lubing or filming a few switches and see how you like the result.  :thumb:

Thanks for the info!

I was just thinking about that - you need to try every soluiton, there is no other way.
