Alps SKCM Orange Sound Test, Review & Specs
Here's the Ultimate Alps SKCM Orange Tactile Switch Sound Test and Review. I conducted detailed sound tests using the ADK64 keyboard, Zenith Z150 keyboard, and Tofu60 case, comparing it with other Alps switches in a controlled environment to provide a clear understanding of its acoustic profile on a full mechanical keyboard. Other switches will be tested in this Ultimate Alps Switches Series, with a comparison video featuring all switches back-to-back at the end! The state of these switches was around 8 out of 10. I also provide close-up shots of every part of the disassembled switch for detailed comparison. Outemu OTM GAOTE and Matias switches will also be tested in this series for a better comparison.
