Basically word. I love Elicent fans. Had a 12" in the attic for an exhaust and could not hear it in the room inside the house right underneath it. You also could not hear anything outside underneath the exhaust vent area on the side of the house and there was about a 20' run from the fan to tha vent and simple duct, not insulated, no muffler, no wrapping of the fan. Had a friend install a 12" Vortex and nasty noise...replaced with an Elicent and all was good.For my grow room op. I use 2 12 inch Elicent inline fans..
The key is Elicent brand, that and insulated ducting is also important.. Purrs like a kitten.. Anything else you are gonna get that airplane turbine effect.. which is unacceptable for your grow. lol
The Elicent inline fans are a lil on the pricey side but well worth the investment..

Bottom line is it comes down to the volume of air moving through a particular sized housing. Elicent 8" and 10" fans use the exact same sized housing yet the 10" has that jet turbine noise thing going on.
Recently looked at the Can Max or something like that and the 12" and 14" move the same amount of air yet the 14" is quieter...go figure?
go to www.controlwizardproducts.com Check out the Speedster.You do not need your fans running at Max all day long.You can dial in your room to perfection and really cut down on noise and save electricity aswell.
