I just recently purchased my first SA set because I don't remember what thread I read but someone said that SA Keysets works really well with MX Clears. So I went ahead and got the Jukebox keyset and I just absolutely love the teal mods!! Anyway, when I first installed it, it felt so weird since all I have been using are either Cherry profiles or OEM, or even mixing around ketset (dsa mods with oem alpha).
Anyway, at first I thought that the keys are just so high and I don't even know if I wanted to keep this keyset. But as I continued to type on it, I'm slowly getting used to it. Also, I thought it was weird that the F and J keys didn't have the dimple marks but then realized that SP included deep dish homing keys which helped. So as of right now, I'm still in the testing phase but I do kind of like these profile on MX clears. I don't think I bottom-out or slam my keys as hard as I used too since the keys are so high.
Also, the thing that sucks is that I have my keyboard on a keyboard tray under my desk and normally, I don't even put the keyboard tray out and just stick my hand under my desk as I type but because the keys are so high, my hands are actually hitting the bottom of my desk now =\ So I guess I'll just have a reason to pull out my keyboard tray and admire the beautiful keyset x]
So what are your thoughts on SA keysets on MX Clears?
Also, here comes the picture spam

Get that keyboard out of the tray and onto your desktop!
And then take the tray off and raise the height of your chair so that the top of your screen is at or slightly below eye level. Ergonomics, my friend.

My legs won't reach the floor if I do that .__. And I do like having the extra space on my desk for useless things LOL but once I find those things that I can put under my desk for my feet, I'll consider putting my keyboard on the desk

I got Hack'd by Geeks as my first non OEM profile keyset and put it on my Ducky with reds - no problem with the height and liked the deep dish homing keys, but I still didn't like the reds so I swapped the alphas to clears. Now instead of an unavoidably easy bottom out on every press I find I sometimes don't quite press hard enough on any key not on the home row, so I'm missing letters. I also have a numberpad with black switches which are around the same heaviness and that is also wearing Hack'd caps - I have no problems with that...
The clunky tactile bump does compliment the old school look of the caps nicely but if I don't get used to it I'm getting the soldering iron out again to try some lighter springs.

SA caps and 62g ErgoClears here and I think it's a match made in heaven, personally. Particularly sculptured SA, although Penumbra isn't sculptured and it's most likely never leaving my modded KBT Pure.

if I could solder, I would have solder my quickfire TK with reds to clears by now since I use that at work and think I would benefit with the clears more at work. I use my v60 with clears at home mostly to play league of legends and I do realize that I do misclick sometimes since the keys are higher and I won't press hard enough on the buttons since I'm trying to quickly use all the skills in the game
