What exactly are you trying to use the keyboard for? This is a question that comes up a lot in the main keyboards forum, especially with newer users. For me, I just went on a spending spree and have tried out so many different kinds of keyboards in the last year and have settled on Cherry ergo-Clears and Reds. But there's still so many more to try, especially with the evolution of custom 'frankenstein' switches (i.e. introduction of Korean 62g springs with any colored stem, ergo-clears, ghetto greens, etc.)
For the more mainstream, general user, Cherry browns have been popular for a long time. It has a subtle tactile bump when typing, and is more apparent when gaming. To some people, it feels linear, especially if they bottom out a lot and is generally considered the best all around switch. To me, I like the extreme ends of things. Products customized for specific scenarios, so the all-in-one switch doesn't appeal to me at all. If you're a pure typist, most people like the tactility in Cherry Blues, Monterey Blues, Buckling Springs, etc. But the trade off is that it's usually too loud, or has a high pitched ping.
In any case, Clears is an unusual start for many. It's heavy, as I'm sure you're well aware. And most people don't like it. Ergo-clears on the other hand, provides a very nice tactile bump even in normal typing situations and is light enough for me to game on. To me (and others), the ergo-Clears are really what Cherry Browns
should feel like. For a more in-depth review of Ergo-Clears,

And actually, if your board is PCB mounted, you could easily convert the entire thing to whatever switch you wanted. All you need is springs and stems, you'll reuse the existing top and bottom switch housing.
