About this switch
The Zi Yuan is a linear switch with a heavy 65.5g spring. It actuates at 43.3g after 2.1mm of travel and bottoms out at 78.8g over a 4.1mm stroke.
Measured at -35dB, it's right in the middle of the 195 switches measured on ThockHub for volume, giving it a recorded character at roughly 2,814Hz. Its 65.5g spring is heavier than 73% of switches in the database, so it feels deliberate and controlled under the finger.
Use the player above to hear the Zi Yuan on its own, then open it in the live simulator to layer in your plate, case, keycaps and mods.
