I originally did not think my coil was too loud but many guests that I 
brought down into my basement did complain.  I ended up buying a few sets of 
shooters ear muffs to have on hand.  It never did bother me, but then again, 
I can't hear very well anyway.  More power = longer sparks = more noise.
