HMX Blue Topaz is notably smooth with a very subtle scratch. Despite being a full-travel switch, its sound profile is similar to a long-pole switch so closely that I sometimes forget it's almost full travel. This feature is especially appealing for those who enjoy the sound of a long-pole switch but prefer the experience of longer travel switches.
We include a control keyboard sound test (Neo70, Aluminum plate, gasket mount, in an acoustically treated room) in every sound test video. This allows you to compare typing sounds across our sound tests. Sound tests are highly dependent on the environment, recording tools, and the playback device. However, we believe that differences in sound can be discerned between recordings.
Thank you @UnikeysOfficial for sending these switches to us.
