I just finished my Zoom65 V2 with kailh box jades and cheap Amazon caps. The sound is ok but I want something “deeper” and louder from the alpha keys. What do y’all suggest? Pulling out the foam in the bottom of the case and underside of the PCB definitely helped. I’ve done the tape mod and plan to do the holee mod when I open it up again.

      you cover both sides of your pcb with press n seal. I guess it’s kinda like tape mod but it sounds way deeper and more poppy to me.

        Ok, interesting. So no foam on top, no tape on bottom, just wrap. Is press n seal special or do you think any food wrap is as good? I’m from Denmark, so it’s not a regular shelf item for me.

        How many layers do you use? And how tight do you make them?

          ahh gotcha. no, press n seal is different from regular food wrap. it has a light adhesive quality to it. it’s also thicker and has a slight texture. so it’s just one layer on the bottom and one on the top with the adhesive side against the pcb. the press n seal can be staticky, so I wore an anti-static bracelet and grounded it to be extra safe I didn’t shock the board. you press those two layers together and make it as flush as you can get it. that creates a pretty tight seal. then you push the switches and stabilizers through.

            Ah, I see. I’ll see if I can order some at a reasonable price. Thanks for the clarification and the details!
