I never owned a cherry mx keyboard but when I do, they're gonna be blues.  I love the loudness of the click <3
If you can, try greens before purchasing.  Loud like blues, but take more force to push.  I tried keyboards with blues (limited testing, just at computer stores where they had already been abused) after using a Model M for a long time, and they just didn't feel that great.  Kind of soft.  Not good enough of a feeling to switch from BS.

Greens aren't a 1:1 match for BS, nothing is, but they feel better than blues, at least to me.

Everything else just felt...worse than blues!  Maybe I need to give them a better try.

I still want to try whites, to compare to the greens, but I gave up on getting "quieter" for coworkers.  I'm not using a BS keyboard, so everyone is happy.  Greens are quiet compared to BS!

Ohh I totally forgot about the greens lol  I might try out the greens in person and see what it feels like compared to the blues.

I like the sound feedback, but I could imagine that after a short amount of time it can annoy certain people or people around you.
I currently have no mechanical keyboard, but personally I'd like to get MX Blues, just to try them for a couple of weeks, but because
most of the time I spend on the computer is "together" with someone else, speaking of Voicechatting with mates, I don't want to
get hated because of the background sound.

So I guess my first board will have MX Browns.
