I generally prefer the sound of thick ABS, but I do think a nice PBT set can feel really nice under the fingers in a way ABS just can't seem to do. Never an easy pick.
@@ClickandThock Ofc. I just prefer the sound of thick ABS, but the feel of a nice PBT set, which makes it pretty hard to get a perfect set of keycaps :P
The thickness as well as the building quality does change the sound too. Like the Extended 2048 is 1.5mm thick, that's really a huge difference compared to Susuwatari 1.1mm, and the Cupid Valentine spacebar sounds so hollow ! 😨
I don't know if I can trust Akko keycaps being PBT. Their keycaps shine very fast within few days and feel like ABS. Had a few sets and compared them myself, they don't sound like PBT due to them producing higher pitch sound than most of my PBT sets. Just my personal experience. They might use cheaper PBT material or falsely call them as that.
I don't think they falsely call keycaps PBT... But thickness have a grest impact on sound... Being double shot or dye sub too! But also production quality.

Yes, I think it's all a matter of personal preference...

You are right! Building and keycaps thickness make differences too! Cupid sound really hollow!
great video ! i love your style / how you present things.
do you have a video / plans for making a comparison between alps caps profiles ?
Thank you!! Alps switches sound comparison on the different cases is in the works! Maybe could try with some Keycaps, but it is harder with alps...
10/10 typing technique
haha thanks! ;)
@@ClickandThock Never an Y, right? : >
i prefer the PBT sound, but ABS can also sound nice. but the biggest difference in sound is the thickness of the keycap walls, imo.
Sure make a great impact. That's why I include this information in the videos!
ABS SA sounds better than PBT SA... Prefer PBT for other profiles.
Exactly what you said👍
Yes, for some reason the SA-PBT has a more clacky sound, the ABS version sounded nicer. Although the thickness is the same.
Yes!! Absolutely loooove SA ABS sound !! :)

Make a comparison between plastic compounds, wood and metal! 😆
I've made a video between plastic, aluminum and wooden cases! :)
@@ClickandThock I meant these materials in keycap form!
I'll be sure to check it out though! 😊
MT3 and OEM are my favorites in PBT. SA sounds too hollow
Yes! SA sounds way better in ABS!
It depends for example neapolitan sounds better with PBT
For sure, that depend of the switches!
Are you using any case foam?
Yes, these is a foam between plate and pcb!
@@ClickandThock What about bottom case?
The oem profile on pbt double shoot is sound thock ?
Yes, all these are stock!
Only thing worse than Cherry is ABS Cherry
I personally love them!
