Switches Sound Tests Compilations: Compare Multiple Switches Side by Side

Choosing the right switch can be tough with so many options available. That’s why I’ve created switch sound test compilations, where you can hear multiple switches back-to-back—all tested on the same keyboard for consistency.
Whether you're comparing clicky, tactile, Silent or linear switches, these compilations make it easier to find the perfect sound for your setup.

Why My Switches Sound Test Compilations Are Unique

I keep all variables controlled to ensure fair and accurate comparisons. Every switch is tested on the same keyboard, same case, same plate, and same keycaps—so the only thing affecting the sound is the switch itself. Many sound tests online mix different setups, but my method ensures you get the real differences between switches.

Each compilation includes:
✔ Back-to-back typing sound tests
✔ Slow bottom-out tests for acoustic detail
✔ Decibel meter readings for volume comparison

How to Use These Compilations

If you're trying to decide between switches, these compilations let you:
- Compare sound differences quickly
- Find switches that match your preferred sound profile
- Discover new switches you might not have considered
- Hear how different brands compare directly

FAQ: Switch Sound Compilations

Are these sound tests affected by the keyboard case?

Yes, but since I test all switches on the same case and setup, the differences you hear are purely from the switches themselves.

Why do some switches sound different even if they’re the same type?

Factors like lubing, factory tolerances, and keycap material can slightly alter the sound, even between similar switches.
