Title: [GB] SRX by Sho, Aluminum/Stainless Steel/Brass Case for Realforce R1/R2 TKL
Post by: hong@RebultKeyboards on Sun, 02 April 2023, 05:54:06
As the Snipe and Sho66 GBs are starting to be fulfilled, Sho is continuing his run of Topre cases with the SRX, a case designed for the Realforce R1 series (84U, 86U, 87U, 88U, 89U, 91U) and R2 TKL series.

GB Start Date: 2 April 2023
GB End Date: 1 May 2023
Estimate Fulfilment: Approx. 3-4 Months after GB Ends

The design of the SRX is a refinement based on the Realforce R1's case, bringing rounded edges and a sleek look, offering a 5 degree typing angle and a front lip height of 20mm.

WKL version is available for the appropriate Realforce R1 variants.

The SRX is incredibly hefty, with the aluminum version weighing 3.3KG fully built, while the 316L Stainless Steel and Brass versions are 7.7KG and 9KG fully built respectively, being truly unique offerings that are truly premium.

316L Stainless Steel and Brass versions will have a layer of clear electrophoretic coating after being sandblasted to prevent oxidation.

Variants/Colors Available:

Hey guys! Here is a sound test for the Sho SRX. I have built a prototype unit with Realforce R1 87U and Variable Domes. Sliders lubed with 3203, stabilizer wires lubed with BDZ. Very premium feel and sound. Little-to-no resonance due to tight tolerances and weight. No need for dampening materials or case modifications.
