Title: Sonnet or Zoom 75, help me choose
Post by: lumen on Mon, 06 May 2024, 04:55:05

I want to build a 75 and narrowed it down to these two. Anyone here have either of these? The overall value of the Zoom 75 is a little better since you get more features, but my first keyboard build was a Mode and I love the feel of it and not gonna lie the RGB on the Zoom is attractive to me since I have never tried it out. Would love some feedback from the experts.

I don't personally own a Sonnet, I run an Envoy, but I have used a couple Sonnet builds and absolutely love it. I used one with a brass weight and POM plate running Oil Kings and it was smooth as hell. I would say that the extra price you pay for a Mode keyboard is definitely worth it, the build quality and style of the sonnet are top tier.  :thumb:
