So this weekend the spacebar on my corsair K60 went out... and it is out of warranty. So I was wanting some input from you guys on a solid replacement. As this K60 was my first mechanical keyboard I want to try a different switch than red. I'm up for any type of switches because it seems that red's aren't a big favorite, maybe i'm wrong? I really like the media controls and volume wheel of the K60, I used them quite often. I also really don't want to spend more than a hundred dollars. If you have any suggestions/good deals I'll gladly take a look, thanks!

Do you double type on reds? I have the K60 and double typing is a huge issue for me. When running in game, my little brother says I have too many "capital W's", cause I always outrun him. Reds are great in game, but typing's a b****....

Yeah, I would get random doubles every now and then as well with the k60.
