Interestingly enough i didnt think this was an aristotle linear as i saw the name aristotle and jumped at the chance. Interestingly enough the stem on its own feels phenomenal as is no lube in a familiar favorite linear setup of mine similar to that of gateron milky yellow or ink switch combo. Short rounded stem sounds and feels just as good if not maybe a bit more interesting than my favorite non long pole linear setup, a gateron yellow stem in a zealio v2 housing. Kept the spring that came with it and all the crunch and nastyness was gone in the new housing again with no added lube of my own.
Now heres the kicker.
Im a big fan of tactiles. I mean hyper tactiles all the way. The only thing more sharp and poppy than one of my franken leaf swapped sinewave tactiles that i have yet to attempt to try would be a t1 style bottom or leaf with one of my sharp halo like stems or even zealio v2/ciy asura stems.
One of the more interesting setups ive found so far is weirdly either the hyper tactile franken king with a halo leaf or a cherry blue (yes) bottom housing/leaf.
They have like a triangular like leaf that makes them comparable to my other setups but with less actual force and potential smoothing out needed to remedy any return issues you may encounter doing this kinda stuff.
These linear housings seem to have a very abrupt rounded almost angular/sharp leaf. Its more of an extreme sharp half circle pop, less of a long and heavy 100% buttery bump style setup. Its like the cherry blue bottom but more interesting and dare i say better feeling(?)
Anyways heres all i did. Linear stem and spring out, now in a gateron style housing think zealio v2 or milky yellow. Beautiful.
Chosfox poison gas stem in aristotle housing, gateron ink v2 blue spring (or preference) in. No lubing no films no nothing.
Pure bliss.
Now i wanna experiment with some more cherry blue and gateron blue leafs cuz ill never get around to buying a ton of desoldered linear aristotles. I dont even have a regular aristotle yet lol.
If u read through my whole word soup i hope theres something in here for you. I just donno how to express how surprised i was to find a super tactile leaf in this switch, a use for the stem, and spring, and housing with no waste short of maybe i may wanna swap the smaller leaf part just to keep things cleaner and get something sturdier touching the tactile bumpy leaf.
I suspect the reason for the complete deletion of the scratch and crunch is due the slight amount of lube the poison gas guys have on their legs which is just blaphemous to have done imo. But hey it worked out here. The leaf was what was crunching and scratchy beyond hell when i got the switch originally.
The tactile thing i made doesnt even sound bad at allll i very much like it. And the linear stem is wonderful sounding and feeling.
