    I've figured how to make these switches sound better! You need to have switch films and go ham on lubing the springs! Check out my Zilent V2 review to hear a similar sound signature. The loose housing makes the switch all the more worse :(

      I loved your reviews and they're so detailed. Also I think I'm gonna buy the durock dolphins, was really into aliaz and zilent but I believe they're overpriced a little. Thank you so much for the high quality videos!

      Hey Rom! I just caught this video. Do you still recommend the dolphins? How much lube for the springs to make it sound better? Which films did you use? Thanks!!

    Super helpful. Helped me steer away from either.
    One nit: O rings only help with downstroke noise. Those of us looking for really quiet experiences care about the upstroke as well.

    I believe all Durock switches are made by JWK. Durock is just the Vendor/Reseller for those switches.

    BTW, looks like you can get unlubed Dolphins for $0.75 each, which is a better deal for folks who are just going to tinker with their switches anyhow.

    I am so glad you made this video. I wanted to get the Dolphins, because they are easier to get a hold of then the Cherry mx silent blacks, which I have been craving. So now I will defintely try to get a hold of the silent blacks, thanks!!

    Have you tried Gazzew bobagums? I mainly use them and I enjoy them quite a lot! They're cheaper than Roselio/Sakurio and Dolphins as well.

      I have not! I'm currently trying out the Boba U4T and I'm really liking them. I'll have to test out the Bobagums in the future.

  • @mikhail6289
    @mikhail6289 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Silent switches strongly needed "more free" cap holding because top rubbers can damage when caps pulling off. This type of problem in Gateron silents. I used gat silent for year, and by first i hated them for scratchiness. But by the time I stop notice that, and they starts more smooth too. They got pretty long travel by the feel. Now I use Dolphins and they super mooshy, sound bad, flat dampfers and oil prelube make nasty sound, shorter travel, wobbling... I will wait, maybe they get better over time.

  • @xoughh748
    @xoughh748 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    What about silent gat black ink or silent alpacas? I know those are both kinda the same, but they are definitely cheaper then the four here.

    • @Romsicle
      @Romsicle  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      *than the four
      Silent Alpacas are just better quality Dolphins. And Silent Gat Inks are pretty quiet overall - a great alternative for sure.

  • @ruthleshunter
    @ruthleshunter 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    so my question is, do you need a specific keyboard in order to plop those switches or can they be pluged into one so long as its made by gateron? seen how they also made these switches?

    • @Romsicle

    • @Romsicle
      @Romsicle  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've only heard things about them, so they should be pretty good. The Silent Alpaca is also made by Durock, so I believe it's just a better version of the Dolphin.

  • @sabrinav
    @sabrinav 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You can't compare the sound of a 67g with the one of a 62g. The stronger the spring, the louder. Also, O'rings give a really mushy feeling that you don't have with the Roselios.
