PHANTOM PLATES AND LINERS
233963-0233958-1
*Phantom options leave a bit to be desired these days, what with the progression of design over these few years. I’ve slowly been putting together things to help with this, if only a small amount. The easiest and most affordable starting point seems to be plates, and FR4 is a perfect option for test runs. In the future other material options may be available, but that depends on interest and successfulness of projects.
This will be a small test run to see how well the design works, and iron out small kinks. This will currently only be the plates + liners and not any PCBs, but I am in works with a few people to design better PCBs for filco/phantom style cases that should be affordable, and up to date with current standards.

Details and Notes

  • I’m currently only doing fixed ansi in this test run, but am open to universal or fixed ISO in the future.

  • The design is inspired by OTD plates, relief cuts are fun!

  • Compatible with cherry stabalizers as well as costar for this run, in the future these will be offered with a PCB and will only support PCB mount cherry stabs.

  • This will technically work with the stock PCB of a Filco with a small modification(see below/)*, BUT I do recommend an aftermarket PCB solution such as a Phantom or an LFK-TKL. And if you’re patient, I will be running a buy with more affordable PCBs in the future.

  • 1.6mm thick, for now
    OPTIONS
    Plates

  • FR4 Full plate - $20

  • FR4 Half plate - $20

  • Micarta// Full plate (Limit of 5) - $25
    Liners

  • Neoprene Firm - Good old neoprene. This should work well to reduce vibration, and should dampen the sound of the board a bit. This would be a middle of the road option, with some benefits from each of the ones below.

  • Cork Rubber - - This is a cork and neoprene blend with medium density, high durability, and decent sound dampening. This will dampen the sound similar to the full neoprene, but should have a deeper sound signature, lighter weight, and will allow for more plate flex. I’m personally partial to this, because it looks cool as hell, and I like the idea of a deeper more “woody” sound.

  • Closed Cell Sponge Rubber - This is essentially high density neoprene foam. Because this is a foam, it will almost definitely provide the most sound dampening. Normally the space between the plate and the PCB is 1/8” inch, and I can get this at 3/16”, since this is a foam like material it will compress and reduce vibration/sound a bit more.

  • All Material Options Respectively - $22 per liner
