This is an awesome top 5! Definitely has me interested in 3 of the switches I don't have yet (inks, creams, and kings). The keyboards however did seem to make a huge difference in sound/quality. Would you consider doing a follow up sound test video of them all set in one keyboard, or even just have each of the 5 switches in center row in each of the 5 keyboards to see a big overall comparison for how these switches sound on each keyboard/plate material? If you do a tactile top 5 that's one thing I would like to see. Great content as always and always getting me to spend money on stuff I don't "need" hahaha cheers!
