Well, I think I've reached my end game 60% I had Plum set aside specifically for this case but, my god, I had no idea the colors would match so well.
Big thanks to LeandreN for all his hard work in running one of the most professional group buys I've been a part of!

Finally got mine out of the post office, where it nearly got lost!
Having tried multiple high quality 60% cases, I have to say... This honestly does take the cake, and it actually sounds fantastic without ANY dampening. Even the venerable Hammer needed some dampening to kill the some metallic case acoustics.
Feels great, looks great, and my second hot-swap modded Alps Eagle couldn't have a better fit.

Case color matching color of keycap legend - these are the winners.
Has LeandreN done any "metallic case acoustic research"? Why this case does not need any dampening of echoing? Is it because of the cut for the weight insert?
In case of version 2, if these cut configurations are not present, will there be bad acoustics again?
Thanks man! I really love the FJELL. Together with my Mira, it's in my top two. As far as research into acoustics, I remember telling Leandren how I was very disappointed with the case acoustics of the FMJ design #1 case I had, and he did say that he'd try to make sure this one didn't have much metallic ping.
I think it might have to do with the overall weight, but I have no idea really! It's certainly the heaviest 60% I have. With less vibration in the case, I guess it would probably lessen noticeable ping.
