Is there a keyboard out there with all these features?

 

• Mechanical

• Compact

• Well built

• Brown Switches

• USB Hub

• Audio Hub 

• Backlit ( One color is fine, RGB would be awesome ).

• Removable USB cable

• Cable routing management

• Semi-Affordable

 

I've been searching for a lifetime but can't find any.

The first 4 are pretty much hand and hand with tenkeyless KBs. USB hubs are usually crappy on KBs anyway, audio hubs are worse, RGB does not exist yet, removable cable is a little bit less than common, cable management is uncommon, and semi affordable is non existent with the first four prerequisites.

Okay, don't care about the price or compact thing. Leave out the backlighting.

 

A normal sized keyboard with the Brown switches, USB and Audio ports?

Closest thing I can think of off the top of my head is the Razer BW ultimate 2013/2014 with browns or the razer brown equivalent.

Yeah, it's really ugly and too big. But it has lots of features.

Why the audio hub? My headphones are always on my deck and my current keyboard has an audio IO on it and it's really useful to just quickly plug my headphones in.

 

Why an USB hub? For my Blue Microphone, to decrease the amount of cables going to my motherboard from my desk. It bothers me right now.

I always used a 3.5mm extension cable that I zip tied to my keyboard cable :P

Matias has some compact mechanical keyboards with USB hubs, but no audio passthrough or backlighting.
