Title: Topre: 10th Anniversary vs Current EK Topre Keyboards
Post by: korrelate on Thu, 18 December 2014, 01:54:48
I can't tell by searching or by reviews on Youtube, etc... is the color of the 10th anniversary case the same as the current black Topre Keyboards (the TKL models on EK)? I can't tell if they're the same or not.


Cheers,

K

I don't think so, my 10th ann is a off gray color, all the pictures of black realforces seem pure black

That's what it seems like when I review videos. Probably is the case but I would love to see somebody post side by side pics. Cheers & Thanks!

They are different. The regular 87UBs are "Black" while the 10th anniversaries are "Dark Grey".  ;D

Regular 87UB left and 10th anniversary right.

Here's a comparison taken off a thread from this very forum, courtesy of DT user 002.

Anyway I have a 10th anniversary incoming... I might take some pictures to compare.

I have the 10th AE caps on a normal 87ub and funny enough the case looks lighter with the caps on but as you can see from the pic they are a little different  ;D
