If you're a lazy typer like me, blacks can be REALLY quiet. Since the actuation point is about midway (you don't have to bottom out), you can really roll off keys for fast typing. The downside is that you don't have feedback, so you will probably have tons of errors.
Pen-clicking is a good comparison to blues. Browns (from what I've seen on youtube) are quite a bit quieter, but still have that nice click. I'm waiting for more options locally, as buying on Amazon (say, for a Filco) is actually more expensive than buying here.
On a side note- How are people saying "switch x is better"? It's really personal preference..
