The NovelKeys Cream+ switches are a new step forward in switch development. They feature a unique hollowed stem, allowing the placement inserts of made of various materials that alter the sound profile of the switch. The inserts come in 3 different materials - Titanium, Copper and Silicone - which alter the sound and feel of the switch. The silicone insert helps to dampen the noise and deepens the sound of the switch a little. The copper and titanium inserts both give a more pronounced and metallic "clack" to the switches – mechboards. | No comments on G Square Beatrice switches. |
