  LOL
context: Mine is the first one (linear) and my husbands is the second (tactile)
  Also he would not let me press his space bar cause his stabs are bad LOL
  Edit:
  To answer a few questions:
  The linear switches are banana split switches and the tactile switches are the ajazz kiwi switches. Both switches are likely over lubed to be honest because it our first time lubing switches for the both of us. 
  My build:
  NJ80-AP w/ brass plate
  Banana split switches
  (I typically keep WS Quartz switches in this keyboard but recently bought the banana splits and wanted to test them)
  IFK marshmallow keycaps
  His build:
  Ducky One 3 Matcha 
  Ajazz kiwi switches
  Edit/update:
  Definitely learned a lot from the comments as we are really just starting out in the hobby! Also wanted to note that I do know that this is all just preference but as my title states, just wanted to show him that people would likely lean more towards mine than his. But no worries because I am currently waiting on a keyboard case that is much better than the ducky to surprise him with so his keyboard (imo) doesn’t sound god awful. 
  Also looks like I know what type of keyboard I want next :) am definitely curious about metal cases so y’all will definitely be seeing another build in the next few months or so (if I’m able to find one that isn’t sold out)
  Thank you for all the feedback and interesting thoughts! >
  
  I personally like tactile. But even his is too quiet.
  I have very clicky keys. But they are a solid click sound, not hallow. They both sound good though.
  With my job, I write code. And I like the feeling of the key pushing back up and snapping. >
  
  What are your favorite clicky switches? I've been wanting to get a new keyboard over my current blues and have an old bag of kailh speed gold switches and haven't looked at switch types much since. >
  
  To each their own. >
  
  The first one by far, and it’s not about tactile vs linear, it’s about that thocky goodness >
  
  How do you make it sound like that? I’m new to keyboards and love the sound that first board makes. Not even sure how to describe the sound!! >
  
  
  NJ80-AP
  
  What everyone forget to tell you, is if you want this thock, get a plastic board, you will not get this kinda of thock with a metal board, you can achieve a different, more satisfying thock with metal boards tho.
  Any plastic board filled with foam will sound like the first board. >
  
  I personally like the sound of the second board more, first one sounds a little too muted for my tastes. Both sound nice though! >
  
  By far >
  
  Second one for me by far. Clack > thock. Both sound good though. >
  
  1st one is the one I prefer. I’m new to custom keyboard game. Could I achieve a thocky sound with a tactile switch? >
  
  Yeah totally! I have a board that sounds pretty similar to hers, I used the Ajazz Banana switches :) >
  
  Husbands are ajazz kiwis :). They do sound thocier irl. I recorded with my phone so it doesn’t sound exactly like that irl. >
  
  1st one by far. Is that a F1-8x? >
  
  It would be a crime to make an f1-8x sound like that.. >
  
  1st one >
  
  First one >
  
  P R E F E R E N C E >
  
  1 >
  
  First. I'm a thocker. >
  
  First one sounds better but I've always preferred the feel of tactiles since I've never needed fast smooth switches >
  
  Linear one is the better one.  Your husband must work for IBM :)
  Didn't your husband get the memo when you guys got married...  "I'm (wife) always right" LOL >
  
  We had to resort to Reddit cause clearly he did not get the memo… >
  
  1st one >
  
  First one! >
  
  First one. >
  
  The first/linear one! >
  
  For keyboards, there isn’t necessarily better individual keyboards due to everyone having different preferences. I like yours better personally but what I think is really great is that you are able to share this hobby! >
  
  First one 100% >
  
  The first. But I would mute both of you in discord if you where not using ptt. >
  
  Husband and I had a chuckle over your comment :) luckily my mic does not pick up typing sounds. Also they sound a lot quieter irl >
  
  I can hear the seething hate during the button presses of second clip. >
  
  Second one better to me. Clacky all the way.  That thocky space bar gives me anxiety. >
  
  Tell your husband that you win. >
  
  First one. >
  
  Second one >
  
  Well, now we know his spacebar sounds crap...  it's obviously yours. >
  
  Can i have spec of both board? >
  
  They sound overlubed to me >
  
  second one by far but tell him to fix the stabilisers >
  
  He’s working on it hahaha >
  
  My general opinion on this is that linear sounds better and tactile feels better, at least usually and in my opinion. >
  
  The first one is more thock, the second one is too tinny. It's too high pitched. Personally I'm aiming for a silent keyboard but if I had to between these two. I like em THOCK! >
  
  Nither. Both are too loud in my opinion. >
  
  First one sounds way nicer >
  
  The first board sounds much better. >
  
  I would say the first, it has that THOC… but then again, I also like the second one. >
  
  The orange one has a soothing and titillating sound. The second one, is for summoning the demon and when the demon came, he will clobber you because you woke his sleep.
  PS: sorry I am not sure the better less erotic word for that titillating feeling >
  
  LOL >
  
  Mine ;)
  Any of these two sound better ;) >
  
  Love the first one. What kind of switches are you using? >
  
  The first one! >
  
  Sounds like the second one could use some lube >
  
  First one's not perfect, but better. >
  
  First one for me. >
  
  the first one >
  
  1st one for me. Deeper thock. >
  
  First One, because it's quieter >
  
  1st sounds better but I’d use the 2nd one because tactile. Was waiting for the spacebar sound on the 2nd tho. >
  
  1st one hands down >
  
  2nd one. >
  
  2nd one >
  
  First one >
  
  1st one >
  
  1st one... I even stopped watching the video early b/c I don't like the 2nd one lol I mean, it's not awful- it's just not my preference. The 1st one is just way more pleasant to listen to! >
  
  1 for me >
  
  First one for sure >
  
  1 100% >
  
  What switches are those? And are they lubed? >
  
  First one >
  
  I'm big on tactile for work, but both would suffice, sound wise. >
  
  What keycaps are the orange ones? >
  
  IFK marshmallows! >
  
  Thank you! >
  
  First one >
  
  Number one definitely lol >
  
  First one for sure. >
  
  The first one jeez >
  
  I like the linear one better.  I used to like the super clicky tactile keyboards but realized as long as the feel of the keystrokes was good, I didn't need the people next door to hear me every time I used it >
  
  1st one. What switches are you using >
  
  The first one is too quiet, the thock sounds... Thick, to me. I prefer a thock that resonates more. The second one is a bit too clacky though. Probably the tactile switches. I prefer linear for gaming. >
  
  Number 1 for sure >
  
  Space from first and alphas from second. That second spacebar is a crime. >
  
  Yours. They have a soft beautiful sound to it. His keyboard sounds like the keycaps are loose over the keys or something. 
  You two should try the tests the other way round too. Let him type on your keyboard and his, and then we can eliminate different users from the process. >
  
  Will definitely do this tonight! He does have more of a “heavy” hand when it comes to typing >
  
  I don't really like tactiles but that first linear sounds much better imo >
  
  1. >
  
  I personally prefer the sound of the first keyboard - it just feels that much tighter/more refined not to mention that those stabs sound great. >
  
  1. >
  
  First one for sure. >
  
  What switch u used for the first one? >
  
  Ah. I knew those were clicky ones. Sorry for your husband but I hate them. 
  I prefer a mechanical typewriter sound above clicky switches. But a deep or silent sound ( you know what I mean :P) is way better for keyboards, in my opinion. >
  
  I’m bias but I prefer the deeper, less clacky sound that the linears on the 1st provide. However the 1st board still sounds less premium regardless of my bias. Sounds a lot more plasticy and hallow. >
  
  Personally enjoy the first one more. I‘m a fan of deep thoccy linear switches >
  
  First one for me is definitely more to my tastes. >
  
  I honestly dislike them both, as they just sound dense and clumsy, but the second one sounds better in my opinion.
  This is not meant as an insult, beauty is subjective to the eye of the beholder, and both of our preferences are valid. >
  
  1st one cuz thonk >
  
  The first one for sure, except the keyboard is little too...woody for my taste. Otherwise, the keys sound way better than the other one. But I also don't like clicky switches all that much. >
  
  First, not even a contest. >
  
  First one >
  
  Not even close. The first by far. >
  
  First is better but i wouldnt want either >
  
  second >
  
  First one >
  
  They're just... different. Atm I would prefer the first one as I've used a razer keeb with the clickity clack green switches for far too long. I need something different to soothe the pain they have caused to my ears... >
  
  I prefer the linear build because while it is too deep and muted for my tastes it doesn't sound plasticy. I like how the tactiles sound but the plasticy sound kills it for me >
  
  
  
  
  All linears sound the same.  Like tapping a stone with a nail. >
  
  The first one. Linear Supremacy! >
  
  First one by far. >
  
  1st >
  
  
  But your husband had already disqualified himself by not having a good sounding spacebar :) >
  
  First for sure >
  
  First one no contest >
  
  1st one for sure, it even looks like what I’m going for tbh! >
  
  Both of them sound good in their own way. Both are good. >
  
  Number 1 >
  
  Second one >
  
  TeamTactile >
  
  1st one sounds better. >
  
  The first one sounds best to me. How do you get it do make that thumpy space bar sound? >
  
  First one for sure >
  
  yes. >
  
  Second one… first one sounds too flat. >
  
  As this community: preference. I was about to say its not quite comparable as his is clicky but wth theyre not. I honestly thought they were clicky switches at first. 
  I do much prefer urs tho >
  
  Number 1 >
  
  That first one was the most annoying sound ever >
  
  1 >
  
  Number one for sure. Bliss! >
  
  Do you take thee beloved in both Thocky and Clicky? Till death do you part? >
  
  Preference but I lean more towards a clean clack than a deep thock. I like the second one a lot more but both boards are cool for sure. >
  
  The first one hands down >
  
  I like the first one >
  
  1st is the only right answer >
  
  Mine is the first one (linear) and my husbands is the second (tactile)
  Also he would not let me press his space bar cause his stabs are bad LOL

  To answer a few questions:

  The thock you hear is because its a plastic case, you put foam in plastic it all sounds like that, but its not the same thock as in a more hollow metal keyboard, that thock is what you want, that thock make me feel things, this just sounds like every other plastic keyboard. >
  
  The worst sound here is the sound of your gatekeeping.
  "Whether you've got a knack for clack, or you're a thock thot, judge other people's keebs thou shalt not." - Moses I think? >
  
  When did I say plastic board is bad? All I said is all plastic boards sound the same when people talk about thock. And when people talk about thock originally they meant on metal keybaord because all of them used to be clacky and pingy and hollow. Making a plastic board thock is a no brainer >
  
  Oh friend, you're totally right. I gotta admit that I meant this reply for u/som_kid666 you commented just 'next' to you below the same parent comment. They were being weirdly gatekeepy about keyboard sounds a how thock is boring for them. 
  Sometimes we need to all take a step back and remind ourselves just how unimportant this hobby is before we start getting heated over it! >
  
  I don’t know why I get so heating talking about keyboards anymore I even quit the hobby basicly. Not bought anything for 6 month and just waiting for GBs >
  
  I just did my first build for my wife for Christmas! Mill maxed split quefrency with lubed milky yellows and a custom sla printed case from a friend. So much work.. and it wasn't the soldering or the lubing, those were easy! It was all the sanding of the case parts. A dremel next time.
  Anyways, point is I'm definitely into it. But when people fight over it I'm still just like, 'You know this is basically an office supply enthusiast Club, right? It's like the least important thing going on in the world.'
  Have a good day and a nice MLK weekend if you're in the states. >
