    Which Aluminum plate did you end up using? Asking because I know Geon has multiple Alu plates on his website.

    thoughts on the tx ap long pole stabs?

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  Год назад +1

      I think they work well! I don’t really use long poles in my personal builds.
      The only other time I’ve used TX LPs is in the Freedom TKL build with Zakus. These Geon Blacks are allegedly just a Zaku recolor, and the stabs do what they need to do 😎

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  Месяц назад +1

      I thought 722 had a weaker spacebar sound and design.

    I will build V2 very soon and It gonna be my first one.
    Would you please tell me all of things what you used?

    • @danielsun5558

      Plate is the F1 v1.1 full aluminum plate and the PCB is the h87nu CEM version

    I've been on the fence for months about which "end game" kb to get, and was leaning towards the Frog TKL since I like the idea of parts and accessories being readily available, and I loathe group buys. But thanks in no small part to this video, I am now in the FL-8X V2 group buy with a 10-12 month wait.😅 I hope mine will sound this amazing!

    thoughts on the half plate vs the standard full?

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  Год назад +1

      No thoughts since we just built with standard full!
      The CEM PCB doesn’t have any flex cuts, so I imagine there would be more bounce but not a ton if we went half plate.
      If this client wants to do a half plate build in the future, I’ll come back with our findings 🥸📝

    hi, how would you compare the 722 and the v2 in terms of sound?

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  3 месяца назад

      I haven’t had the chance to swap the same build into both versions since both the 722 and v2 build were commissions.
      The 722 build I did felt quieter/more muted. That could’ve been because of the switches or the difference in front height and weight material. 722 has brass vs. v2 has copper.
      FWIW F1-8X OG with MX Blacks is louder than both the v2 and 722 builds
      All of them have that pleasant F1 sound signature, so I wouldn’t stress too much about the differences and enjoy whichever one you choose.

  • @nutbowl91101
    @nutbowl91101 Год назад +1

    the f1 v2's side profile is straight up stunning
    geon be cookin
    I still prefer the sound of og f1 though (though I definitely prefer the feel of the newer F1s, the og v1 is just way too bouncy)

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  Год назад +1

      OG F1 is still undefeated sound wise 😎
      The lower front height on the V2 really sells it for me. I like my keyboards comfy ✨

    • @marshmellohs
      @marshmellohs  Год назад +1

      Geon Blacks are long pole so just keep that in mind!
      They’re also Tecsee iirc - not sure how well the bottom housings fit for a plateless W1. If you use the align plate, it’s probably fine, but Cherry + Plateless is a cheat code

      They’re so many TKL with centred usb-c port out there, the F2-84 is an example. The F1 supports so many aftermarket tkl pcbs like Hiney’s H87 which makes it special and convenient
