Nice but a bit thin. I feel like oddly less dense o-rings did kind of push the board to err more on that end of the sound spectrum, but DCX is also a very different ABS compound than the usual Keykobo or GMK, I suppose. I did try a bunch of o-rings myself but I always ended up going back to the stock 50a red one... poor Graveshift 30a and 40a rings... sitting alone in my drawers, not doing anything...

​@@gable1997 all this thinking about the Ciel makes me want to rebuild mine.... again lol

@@offbrandbiscuit just rebuilt mine awhile ago hahahaha. Go for it man!

​@@gable1997ye I built mine with Meteor Oranges on CF, but I desoldered to lube the switches. Sadly the spacebar is kinda thunky and weird bc I tried to straighten my banana bar and it went a bit poorly, but would be fun to jazz the board up sometime and desolder, then do a final build!

@@offbrandbiscuit Ooh, pls do a sound test with those switches! I just bought myself a CF plate too and i like it more than alu for sure. Im testing out switches at the moment and do a final solder build as well. haha Cheers mate
