Wow that sounds great, kinda like mahjong tiles clashing into each other. I have some Z1s at hand but haven't thought to put them on this board! I'll probably swap out the alpha keys to Z1s and see how it goes!
Just keep in mind that I hand lubed my switches and did the following mod. Sound might varies tho to diff table density as well. I use an uncut IXPE to enclose the case foam with the PCB itself. 1. Cut an IXPE sheet to PCB size 2. Use cellophane tape and tape on all edges of the IXPE sheet. Expose some adhesive part of the tape as it will be sticking on the PCB after. 3. Put the case foam between the IXPE sheet and the PCB. 4. Use the remaining adhesive tape to stick onto the PCB. To create a seal to the internals of the keeb. That’s basically it. Just sealing the internals with an IXPE sheet to make it sound more focus and full.
Just finished my first build ever (Keychron K8 Pro, U4Ts, Stabies V2, both lubed w 205G0), and I'm very jealous of what you achieved, that saturated thock sounds soo good😅
If you've already splurged on Stabies and Boba switches, you should have considered a different barebone option for your keyboard build. Keychron keyboards fall short in terms of modern mounting structure and overall value for consumers.
There is no way this build costed under 200 dollars. Bc the qk75 costs over 200 and sounds close but not AS creamy as this. Really well done...how much did it cost you?
I’m from Malaysia so the direct conversion to USD is $130. It definitely punches above its level. The internals are well constructed and designed. Just that you can feel the difference when you’ve handled a QK or Cycle board.

Been eyeing the MZ Z1 for my Rainy75 as well, this sealed the deal for me. :)
Glad the soundtest helped in ur decision making!
Just ordered some MZ Z1's because of this video. This combination sounds insane! Can't wait for my Rainy75 to get here.
Look forward to your build!
I just bought the MZ Z1 after watching this video, my rainy 75 has not arrived yet though...
Can you do a video showing the mod you did to the rainy??

Keychron keyboards never really thock unless it's Q models...:((

Are these switches stock or did you re-lube them?
Relubed
How did you get the keyboard so soon?
This board have been out in Asia for a few months already. Maybe it’s new for your region.
🥰 i like this sound
Thanks for your compliment!
what mods did u use ?
