Almost Perfect Switches! One flaw

Love these switches I rebuilt my cw88 with them and they sound fantastic. The only issue is the spring. Lots of spring ping and crunch so I wouldn’t recommend using it stock. (I always swap springs anyways so wasn’t big deal for me) I relubed and oiled geon springs for a perfect sound profile�

My favorite linears

I've tried a decent variety of switches: - SP Star meteor whites - Cherry MX Blacks - Sarokeys BCPs - Genuine BCPs - Ducks - Oblivions - New Nixies - Raeds v2 - Creams - Alpacas - Cobalts - Tungsten A lot of these are main stream well known linears. I would have to say that Gateron Raws were my absolute favorite though. The switches long pole, and sound profile that I classify as a medium clack is right up my alley. They're really smooth, and didn't require films. Currently have them soldered into my plateless Jubi and I couldn't be happier with them. By far my favorite sound profile of any of my boards. I did not have the same issue as some other reviewers, where they experienced lots of spring/leaf crunch. Since I was soldering them into my favorite board, I made sure to individually inspect each switch to make sure they didn't have that issue. I bought mine back in August of this year, so maybe it's a batch variance issue? Only mods I made were: - Spring swap to geon long single stage - Dumped a ton of gpl 105 on the springs - Lubed the stem

unbearable spring(?)/leaf(?) crunch

i wanted to love these. they felt so smooth out of the box and the high-pitched, loud, and thick sound profile is just about perfect on my mode sonnet EXCEPT for the incessant crunch sounds that these switches make. i've tried so many things, including but not limited to - spring swap (geon single-stage) - lubing springs - lubing stem - lubing bottom housing - lubing top housing - lubing leaf - lubing top of leaf - lubing stem pole and they somehow just still have this awful "crunch"/rattle noise on basically every keystroke that's almost as loud as the bottoming out sound itself. some things i've tried have fixed the problem temporarily, but never it never goes away for more than a few weeks of use. this genuinely ruins the switches for me. i'll try swapping and relubing the springs sometime soon, but given everything i've gone through to try to fix these switches only for them to still have this awful crunching noise i just cannot recommend them unfortunately.

If you like high pitch switches this is one of the best. The factory lube in the spring is not so good so it might need a bit of work. One of my favorites
