Thanks for watching!
KMAC Happy was never meant to be the best sounding board, but it's for sure special in my heart and so iconic, a piece of history.
What's special about it?
Not meant to be condescending, just curious :)
@@RamenPoweredShitFactory its old
@@RamenPoweredShitFactory first mx hhkb to hit the market
It's a symbol of something that is just happy to exist, even if its imperfect.
Yes Mr Diego I am also happy.
I am glad, treeleaf
I like them, but how do they compare to nixies?
Nixies can be great, good, or absolutely terrible, so it heavily depends on the state of the (old) switch. You can also find the auditory comparison on the VOD I uploaded.
Opinion on the switches? 🤔
If you like MX Blacks already, you'll like these. Milky top has a cool factor +1. Nothing too much beyond that though. Still recommend the usual mods (lube, spring swap for weight, film)
@@LightningXI How about breaking them in? Will they benefit from being broken in for 300k, 500k, 1mil actuations?
@@mintlata Yeah, probably no different from other MX Black switches.
@@mintlata Any switch will
How’s the smoothness compared to hyper glides?
Pretty similar/same.
Sounded better on stream
