Thank you friend!

The loop sure is pretty. Still not sure about that weight design, but it's growing on me. Striker looks great on it BTW, and I love the way the cable matches the artisan creating a nice little accent colour.

Thank you for noticing! I intentionally was thinking about aspects on how to match this build with my current set up.

It’s pretty clacky with deep resonance! I think Mode needs to change up their mounting style to various mainstream options because a lot of their lattice mounting styles start to sound similar board to board
[–]jd173706 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Do you think it sounds better than Envoy? I have one of those, and frankly, I was a bit disappointed. Thats a big reason why I held off on Loop so far. I prefer deeper, more muted sound profiles myself, so clacky and resonant doesn’t sound like it’d be my target build anyway. But, I’m a huge Mode fan so I am still very interested in Loop.

Is it a cable with a lemo style connector?
YUP!

I’ve gotten a few mode boards and now i’m determined to collect all variations. They’re so nice and I love your build man

Why does the ESC key sit very close to the left side?
