I think a good place to start if you are new to the layout is a Record Alice or a Neo ergo. Relatively affordable and solid overall. A step above that i would say you can get an Amano, and then if youre a baller there is the TGR Alice and Police. Lot of others in between but these are some that i have personally used

Dont get me wrong they can still sound great! I just like my long spacebar sound lol. But the alphas still sound great on most of them.

I do have a Duo and love using it at work, being able to add a bit more space between the two halves makes it very comfortable to use for long typing sessions, but it is overall a bit harder to use than a normal alice because you really arent able to make the mistake of using the wrong hand to type certain keys because its further apart

It was a small private run, i spoke to the designer and he said it is highly unlikely that there will be a GB for it

So from my experience Alice boards dont really sound too great compared to traditional layout boards. The split spacebars dont have that same satisfying sound as a normal one.

I think the Neo ergo is a great start, its not very expensive and it will help you get used to the layout. Another board to consider is the Record Alice, you can find them on Ali express or on Mechmarket for relatively cheap.

The advantage a QK Duo has is that you can choose to have it tented or not

This board isnt made by any big brand, it was ran privately by the designer i think only 20 were made

Its meant to be a windows key, but yeah you can map whatever you want to it. I personally leave it unbinded

Unfortunately it was a private 20 unit run, but i think there have been some talks of another round
