Out of the gate, I'm knocking a star off for a combination of things...the MSRP of this keyboard, and the fact that I had to hunt across an entire store to actually see one out of the box.
This is a more compact keyboard that some of the other gaming ones I've used, and with the particular switches for the keys, it is going to be louder...if you want a quiet keyboard, then don't use these types of switches.
There's 1 USB pass-thru on this keyboard, and the software that runs the lighting system from Corsair is a bit overly complicated in my opinion - but if you want lighting options for a keyboard, you can literally do thousands, if you want to spend the time setting them up.
It allows you to swap out your WASD and some other keys that are frequently used in gaming, which is a nice touch.
DO NOT BUY if you need a keyboard for your everyday home use, or making spreadsheets; there are other keyboards out there that are far less expensive and have specific features for things like that. This is a pure gaming keyboard, so unless you need a light show when you're replying to work emails, look for the right tool for the right job.

I would recommend this to a friend!

Insignia™ - 6' USB 2.0 Transfer Cable - Black
This 6' Insignia™ NS-PU965XF USB 2.0 cable is designed for use with PC and Mac and features speeds up to 480 Mbps for efficient data transfer to and from devices.
Can this cord be used to hook up a sound bar to a movie projector?
This is a data transfer cable...you're going to need a regular connection cable, unless you're moving some type of files between a sound bar and a movie projector?
There's way better, and much better priced, cables for hooking up a sound bar to a movie projector.

Which switch for the K95 is the QUIETEST? Not a gamer but i do lots of typing. Thank you
From what I've seen in the industry standards, your Cherry MX Blue and Brown would be the loudest, with your MX Red being quieter.
However, this is relative to an individual, and there are benefits/drawbacks to the keypress timing, etc. between the different switches.
I honestly recommend you try the various types out and see what works for you.
Also - be careful between keyboard manufacturers...some of them like to call "their" switches different things than the industry "standard", thus confusing the customer even more.
