Some so-called low noise multishot fireworks are noisier than they say they are!

Some "so-called" low noise fireworks can make more noise than their quieter status can suggest and are noisier than their low noise labels might suggest;
Men Shun Stardust 140-Shot Cake, says it's low noise although this runs for 3mins, in addition to quieter stars and starmines it doesn't half make a racket with it's loud crackling comets! also,
Men Shun Mystical Fairytales 225-Shot Cake, also says it's low noise but running for 5 minutes, has lots of crackling comets with low noise coloured star effects and starmines!
These two cannot truly be "low noise" at all if the crackles emitted make such a racket!
How can cakes/barrages and roman candles, plus long running Cat3 stuff be classed as low noise if they crackles loudly? My idea of low noise would be pretty coloured stars and comets without noise effects added plus quieter blackpowder bursts on multishots producing starbursts, good examples of truly low noise items are;
Fireworks International Emerald Twister/Silver Flying Fish and Colourful Doves,
TNT(formerly Millennium) Deep Blue Sea,
Planet Fireworks 1000 Bees,
Golden Lion Silver Fish In Blue Pond,
and many many more that don't have whistles and crackles! :closedeyes:

Personally, i'd read "low noise" to mean that there's no bangs. I guess others might interpret it differently though.

I get a feeling this thread will get closed, as you've posted it in two sections.

Yeah I interpret 'Low Noise' as minimal bangs too.

Truly low noise are fireworks were the most noise comes from the lift charge lighting.

Anthony - do you have ANY idea what you are talking about???

at least a couple of the items you have described as being "low noise" have a launch thud twice as loud as any crackling comet I've ever heard (including the everlasting Mystaical Fairytales)


Why do you just regurgitate things you read elsewhere and try to make out actually know what these items do??

The crackles STILL make a fair bit of noise even with the launch thumps!!! Look at www.menshun.com and watch the RealVideo clip and you'll see! :angry:

i'd say low noise can have crackling comets in it no probs.

and what does the length of the firework have to do with it?
