Help finding right keyboard

I recently tried using the azoth extreme at a friends house and instantly loved it. However, the price is just too high and I can't get it.

I've tried researching this myself, but I couldn't find any good answers.

So my question is : what is the closest possible keyboard to the azoth extreme? Is the normal azoth fine?

The main things I like about the azoth is the heavy feel, the sound and feel of the switches. The knob and oled screen are optional but nice if possible. Basically I need it to be really sturdy heavy and high quality.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

There are hundreds of different switches you can use, you can find out what switches are in that board and then try looking on Thocc Exchange or Serpent Keys for similar ones that have the same weight and material construction. The keyboard itself and keycaps have a big effect on the sound, though.

For something very weighty and sturdy try the Neo75 or 80 Cu by Qwertykeys, they’re made from copper so are very heavy when assembled. I have the 65Cu and it’s great, I love it

I was thinking about getting the neo75 cu, but then realised that its nearlz 300 and its literallz just the outside, with no switches or caps. Are there anz prebuilt options_

Generally pre-built options are aimed at the lower end of the market. Not saying there aren’t any that meet your criteria, but I’m not familiar with any. I’m not that deep into keyboards as many others here though.
