Just caught up on this and it sure looks great and the proto photos make me so jelly...
But I still have a question - given Reflex and Paradox is meant to be unique sounding and you have protos for both. Is there a chance to hear typing/sound tests? It's not necessary for GB but I enjoy me some typing tests.
I have some Tealios & Zealios V2 coming in late December that I will lube and build up the Master Sample that is in fabrication now. Unfortunately it most likely will not make it to me in time for the GB...
I would suggest choosing which design you prefer over any differences in typing sound between the two. The Reflex
was designed with mimicking the loud speaker in mind, and in theory would change the sound due to the bottom opening. However in practice the O-Ring hardness has far more pronounced effect on sound & feel.
Personally I'd get the Reflex just cus there will likely not be another board quite like it.
The current stock Halo Clears in my first proto have terribad spring ping, and I will not subject anyone's ear to such atrocity...
