I've used the 60HE for a few years now and was wondering what I can do to maitainence it and also improve the sounds etc. The key board held up pretty well but it does have some pretty hard key wobbling and spring pinging. Is there any fixes for this? I'm thinking of potentially changing the keycaps and switches. I saw on their website that the stock key caps are PBT so I'm curious to know if an upgrade in keycaps would help the sound. Also for the switches is there any switch that makes it sound nicer.

Swapping switches will make the biggest difference. Check the recommended switches and listen to sound tests here: #🪛│modding_faq message Basically, anything from the top of the list will sound cleaner and nicer than stock Lekkers, and will also have much less stem wobble.
Keycaps can also change the keyboard's sound profile. Thick PBT keycaps like PBTfans or Wuque will make the sound deeper, while ABS keycaps such as GMK or Keykobo make it a bit more clacky and bright.
I'd also recommend swapping the plate to PC or any other material, because the stock steel plate is very loud, harsh, and stiff. Friction fit pad from Wooting will also improve sound and feel, but unfortunately it isn't compatible with the stock plastic case.
btw i saw that the stock keycaps are also PBT, is that one not as good or is it better to just switch to a thick pbt
Stock keycaps are completely fine, especially if you like shinethrough keycaps. If you want different style keycaps, you can swap them with something else
ok, is the other materials for keycaps fine too like ceramic and pom
