The loudest one seems to be an Alps white switch keyboard. I dig it. I like that one clip is of an EnduraPro.

I think that Filco you linked has black switches.

Yes, that one sounds like the browns. God I'm a dork.

I like the Alps and buckling springs above all else right now. I don't like Cherry switches except for the MLs, and because of my being a key-watcher, I could never get my correct pace on the HHKB Pro black on black, which kept me getting out the big clicky keyboards time and again. Topre has a great switch, and if the 86 comes out in a color scheme like the M mini I'm sold.

But right now, I'm strictly on buckling springs. I finally got a hold of a couple M minis,  I have wanted one for soooo long, so I owe it to the keyboard gods to use only this keyboard at home until new years. The Model M is a great keyboard for writing. The keys are heavy but they feel like a typewriter and they click loud but not like an Alps white.

Yup, sold it to a member on the marketplace thread.
