How much of a difference will this aluminum top case make on how the ctsm80 sounds compared to the polycarbonate top case, assuming everything else is the same?
It makes it pretty marginal difference in sound (both cases sound great). Hipyotech does a back to back comparison of the sound with the PC and metal decorative cases at about the 42 minute mark of his review.
LukasMThank you for the reply. The Hipyotech review was very informative. He did get cut while handling the aluminum case, though. That issue will be resolved before it ships, right?
I too watched the hipyotech review on this product and on his video (37min in) he said the price of the aluminum case was $41 dollars. Did the price go up or something? I like the keyboard itself but I prefer my keyboards to have a solid weight to it. To do that I'll have to get the metal base plate and the aluminum case cover which all together with tax and shipping will run another $120 after the stock purchase. Will those items ever go on sale at any point just like how the stock prebuilt CSTM80 went %15 lower in price?
