Aged Topre?

[mohawk1367]

Is there anyone else who prefers factory new domes over aged domes? Everyone seems to love them because they're snappier and more tactile, but I honestly kind of like the super round, more linear feel of factory new HHKB Pro 3 domes. It's just nice and soft feeling idk.

I like factory unaged domes as well, but that is because i don't like the super tactility those domes bring and weight. I swapped the domes in my 2003 HHKB because they where next level and the weight was more close to 55g. i am typing on Gateron clears and spring swapped switches that bottom out at 50g or even 45g.

I had leftover domes from a Pro 3 and I recently bought a Pro 2 and put the Pro 3 domes into it... people acted as if I was some sort of heathen 
I only bought the Pro 2 because it was cheaper LOL

It probably depends on what feel you're looking for. I put BKE domes (ultra-light) in both of my Topres, and they are more tactile than the stock domes. I absolutely love the additional tactility, sound, and snappy response. However, I've been using them for over 2 years now, and I find that they mellowed out some. I still like the feel over the stock domes, but if you like to touch type, the stock domes are probably more for you since it has a rounded force curve. An aged Topre board should give you a smooth typing experience.
In most of the posts I've read, most people don't like the BKE domes, so I guess I'm the exception.

TBF I also have a bag of BKE Extremes on my desk for when I'm craving something different LOL
