« on: Sat, 20 October 2012, 16:32:40 »
heyyy so im new to the forum and cant grammar.. leave me be. I recently got into mechanical keyboarding its awesome, i particularly like the way u can float the mx reds (pauses to drool) anyway i have tried the realforce 87u 45g board i disliked the tactility of the board in comparision to the filco mj2 reds, i also bought a cm storm qfr with reds to compare to the filco and i think its very close but not quite. i was wondering what tkl board i could get next to best the mj2????? its a mystery i've looked at so many different boards lately on the web and it semms that none can compare to the filco am i right if not what board should i get next??

If you are so happy with your filco, why get a different one?

It will be hard for you to find a better keyboard than the Filco, especially with MX switches. I have a KMAC and a Phantom (unassembled as of yet), and I really still prefer my Filcos. I have 5 of them. 3 with reds, an ergo clears, and a browns. I can use them all equally well and I like all those switch types.

If you really want a KMAC or Phantom (or Cheat, etc.), you can get one if you are patient, persistent, and have money to spend.

Good luck with your search!

I took a gamble and had my brand new 1 week old Filco with Reds modded to Ergo Clears without knowing how they felt and I have no regrets.  I liked the reds over the blacks, blues and browns I've tried.  I still plan on getting a board with reds in the future but now I am contemplating getting another board with clears and custom korean springs and stickers.  I'd also like to have a board with all greens.  How long it takes to get all these new boards will depend on how much the new keycap addiction gets though.

One thing you may consider is a set of pom or pbt keycaps which could 'subjectively' improve the feel of the board. Else well be happy you have a great board.
