This is the problem with just throwing all the mods at a board in one go. You never got to know it without the mods properly. Ideally you should build a board with absolutely no mods at all, and then assess what you wish to modify. This will give you a better idea of what to do. For example, if you like a stock board, but it has really bad case ping, you know that all you need to do is fit some case foam, and that would be it. As you have pretty much done every mod you can think of at once it would be hard to tell what needs doing. All I know is adding even more mods will probably not get you what you want. At a guess, I would suggest removing the switch pads to get a harder bottom out sound. This may well match your space bar better as space bards tend to be louder due to their sheer mass. It's hard to say though.

Thanks, I forgot to say I used the board two weeks without any mod and only with two silicone sheet 2mm (so 4mm in all) and sound wasn't that bad, less creamy but more thock than now. Anyway u can be right, I will try to remove one switch pad and hear the difference. Ty.

Exactly this, couldn't have even said it better myself. The trouble is people hear about all these mods, but don't always know exactly what they are doing for the build and what they change about it. So they think these are all necessary no matter what, when really these mods are just to change up the sound of the board to the users preference, there are really no mods that are 100% necessary for any board. Best course of action is to always build a board without mods, think about how you want the sound to change if you don't like it, and then use the appropriate mod. Or, if you just want to do all the mods to it, slowly do them 1 by 1 and see how they change the sound, you may like one of the intermediate steps more than the final result of all the mods being done.

Yup. Even if you end up with a board you think is great, if you did it all at once, you've no idea what mod resulted in the end result, and many of them may have actually been redundant. Doing them one at a time, will allow you to evaluate what each mod is doing. It also teaches you what will be most effective on your next build.
