Mechanical Keyboard recommendations?

Hey guys, I have a couple questions about mechanical keyboards because I am looking to get a new keyboard this holiday season.

I am currently using a coolermaster quickfire tk with blue switches and I quite like them, but do to my family and how loud they are, thus I am looking to get a quieter switch, but still has the clicky feeling. Is there a switch that feels like blues but isn't quite as loud?

I really don't want a numpad, and back lighting doesn't really matter to me.

My budget is around 130 dollars Canadian, Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated :>

This might be good, the brown switches i found were all like 170.

You could buy a returned one for around $92 canadian, but you'll have to be a hawk on the site.

I really like the Ducky Shine series, I have a 3 and I think they can be found for around that price new.

Logitech g710+ has brown switches with o-rings to dampen the sound. Could be worth a look

Most of the noise for blue switches is from bottoming out the keys. If that's the case for you just get some o-rings.
