How can all you guys hear your micro switches clicking?  Unless you play the games with no sound?  I can't hear a thing except the game sounds and my cussing.  :P

Kremmit:

The 20" models are 50 & 60 bucks, unpainted metal.  That's cheap?

That said, it's also not outrageously expensive, and it's certainly a lot of work saved, especially for a metal panel.  Just add holes!

If i keep the volume at a "normal--people are sleeping on the floor above me" level, I hear clicky clicky

And when you slap a dozen microswitches into a plastic and/or metal box, even cranking the volume doesn't do much.  My dislike for the feel of the stick (and the fact that it locks up) in my official Dreamcast arcade stick aside, that thing is one noisy *****.
