MDA profile is essentially a reduced-height SA variant, though it has a few unique tweaks for usability. Big Bang doesn't have a uniform profile like most ortho sets. Be prepared for wonderful sculpting — not flat keys like DSA. compatible keyboards / layouts: 1. Planck and clones 2. Preonic 3. XD75 4. Atreus and Atreus62 5. Diverge TM 2 6. Terminus Mini 2 7. Diverge 3 8. Any keyboards with 1u grid-spacing up to 15x5 High quality PBT plastic and dye-sublimated legends. PS. Our company only produce MDA and MG (New High Profile) keycaps, maybe other profile looks like MDA very much, but is nothing related to us, we only make high quality stuff! Thanks for your patience!
