KTT Kang White Overview & ASMR Sound Test : Best Budget Linear Switch? ft. RK100 / RK860
Channel: The Custom Keebs
Date: 2024-04-03

The KTT Kang White is such a gem for a budget keyboard build. For less than $0.30 per switch, you can get thocky, poppy, and creamy sound profiles on almost every keyboard, based on your preference. The only downside for me is just the spring being too light (at ~45g actuation force), making me accidentally press the keys when my fingers are resting on the key. However, it’s all about PREFERENCE :)

RK100 / RK860 Mods:
I have used modified “band-aid” stabilizer mod, Tofu screw O-ring, 3 layers of tape mod, replaced the original case foam with poron case foam, and yes, I put tack-it at the bottom casing of the keyboard. The reasons I put tack-it on the keyboard are to make the sound slightly more thocky, and to make the keyboard feel heavier as well as more premium to hold. This is a budget mod I discovered by myself and can make some budget keyboards feel more premium and sound better if used appropriately. I will make a YouTube Short showing how I use tack-it in my RK100/RK860. 

As for the modified “band-aid” stabilizer mod, I used 0.2mm poron foam from the switch film for most of the stabilizer instead of bandage. As for the spacebar, I have added another layer of actual bandage to it to make the sound lower pitched. 

Also, bear in mind that due to the weird sounding of the RK100 PCB, the sound is inconsistent across the board. Thus, I used “F”, “G”, “H”, and “J” keys in my keycaps comparison as their sounds are considered middle pitched on the board, not the highest pitched nor the lowest pitched.
