Between those two, I would get the Taihao set. Note that it is currently the Chinese holiday so expect to wait a while to receive it.

 

Where are you located? Budget? Anything particular that you are looking for, like color, or profile?

i an in europe,budget :dont care but not something crazy such 80-90bucks for a set of keycaps,color:black or white will work  and for profile i have a cherry mx keyboard . if you need something else ask me , i am more than happy to answer

what do you recommend ?i dont mind not being backlit but at least i want the legends to be clear even at night adn i want them to have a very good quality

My top 2 would be XDA Canvas and Mt3 dev/ty But those are currently not live. You can get them second hand on r/mechmarket if you look long enough. 

 

For more accessible options you could look at MP Retro Beige, SA 9009 or Carbon

Not that I know of other than the XDA Canvas I posted before. I think those are a lot less common.

I haven't posted on here since 2017, or on the forums at all actually. I thought I might as well pop back in to show off my latest board. It's a Niu Mini ortholinear 40% keyboard, using Cherry MX Silent Red switches, lubed and spring swapped to Gateron Yellow springs so that they have a bit more force.

Go on amazon and do that. Not many options, maybe reddragon Vara or Gigabyte Force K83 would be best for that price.

It's money pit if you don't control yourself. Some users on r/mechanicalkeyboards and Geekhack have ridiculous collections.

The click is definitely louder. It also produces a click on both the downstroke as well as the upstroke, instead of only on the downstroke. 

Not sure how well you can hear that through my phone, though.
