And the dust collectors are not really an annoying noise, typically
quieter than any of the machines that they are hooked up to.

Mine sounds like an F-16 just after lighting the afterburner.

i have found most things in the industrial world that don't make much
noise aren't doing much work. i think this especially applies to
vacuums and blowers.

Not true. There are a lot of things that can be done to mitigate noise. Do
you buy the loudest car because it goes faster? The quietest because it gets
better gas mileage?

no, but since you brought it up, the fastest ones do make the most noise.

It must be the noise that causes the speed, right?

uh, no. the power produced causes the speed. The still burning and
expelled gasses make the noise.

I suppose you've never heard of a muffler? You seem to equate the two.

oh yes, mufflers are a necessary evil. But they do decrease the power.
I wonder if they make flowmasters for the ****ing dust collection
systems? HA HA HA!!
