Going to buy my first da. I live in a town house complex, and personally hate noise.

Which da is the quietest?

I have Porter Cables 7424 and Flex 3401 dual action polishers and of the 2 the Porter Cable is the most quiet....but they're not very loud to begin with...

Yes, what the Sweaty guy above said. Porter Cable is the quietest

Might want to repost this question in "ask the expert". In the show car Garage, they have all of the DA polishers to use. I personally dont remember one being significantly louder than another when I have been there, but Mike Phillips can probably comment better as he has been around them all and at the same time often.

I don't find it to be quiet but it's not loud to the point where neighbors should complain.

With my PC it depends on which speed I'm using,but all-N-all not a big
problem in that it attracts attention.

I live in the same type of place. I find it's quiet enough to use during the day, but I feel weird using it after it gets dark. Nobody has complained yet though. PC 7424 old school
