Hey, Lenny Gale Life is NOYOKE.
Vitamix noise
comparison. Which is the least loud?
Which is the least noisy?
Which is the quietest. Let's answer that
question really fast. There
is a big difference between the least
noisy and the most noisy Vitamix.
The quietest Vitamix, well
first of all, no Vitamix machine is
quiet.
They're really powerful and they make
a lot of noise. But the least noisy, the
most quiet by far are
the Vitamix Pro 750 and the A3500.
So the premium models.
The ones that come with the True Metal
finish. We've found that those two to
be the most quiet, the least loud.
So that's Tier 1 of
noise output. Tier 2, so the
ones that are a little more noisy. A2500 and A2300,
5200, and Pro 500.
The Personal Series too kind of fall in
that second tier and the Venturist Series,
so the V1200.
And then third tier, the most
noisy, the most loud, the least
quiet, Explorian so E310 and E320.
Okay, hope that helps get an idea of where
they all stack up.
To understand how quiet
or how much noisier they
are you'd have to talk about decibels
and that's
a very complex mathematical thing that I
don't even totally understand.
Here's what the
easiest way to understand it is an
increase in 10 decibels is double
the volume to
our ears. So from 90 decibels
to 100 decibels that's going to sound like
it's twice as loud.
Some examples. A quiet office is
50 to 60 decibels.
80 decibels.
That's city traffic.
If you're hearing horns and cars
running between 85 and
90 decibels that's like a lawn mower or a
vacuum.
Or maybe like a quieter
motorcycle. But it starts to get really
loud really fast as you'll see.
So if 90 decibels is a lawnmower.
98 99.
That's like your your subway train or
your loud motorcycle.
And then really fast, at about 100, 103,
105,
that's an airplanek, like a jet flying
overhead really low.
If
you're in an urban area and you've heard a
jackhammer that's almost painfully loud.
That's at about 110 decibels.
They say 120
decibels is really uncomfortable.
So an ambulance siren
turned way up that's around 120
and painfully loud is 130
decibels so that's like a
shotgun. So like firing a gun.
So if you sustained that
level of volume, of output, of noise,
you're going to, you're going to have ear
damage if it's sustained.
So where do they shake out?
So Tier 1.
The A3500, the Pro 750,
those fall in around 88,
89, 90 decibels.
Loud! Like that's a
loud thing. But the
difference between that and tier 2 which
usually shake out around 92,
93, 94, 95 decibels, that's
a big difference.
10 decibels is double the volume to our
ears, six decibels
is 50 percent louder and I think it's
around 4 or 4.5 decibels is
like 40 percent louder.
So if you go from 90 to
95 that's
significantly louder and forget the
numbers forget the measurements of
decibels like you
can really tell the difference. You can feel if
you turn on an A3500 or a Pro 750, they're
equally quiet or equally not
that noisy.
You turn on
one of those right next to a Tier 2 or a
Tier 3 you're going to hear the
difference, you're going to feel it.
It's significant.
Now, Vitamix doesn't make these claims.
It doesn't say yeah these
are the least quiet or these are the least
noisy.
And I'm not sure why anyone hasn't
done a video like this, kind of, showing?
But here's what I'll say.
If you're concerned at all about noise
about the the output of
a Vitamix that you're gonna get,
I would stay away from that Tier 3.
So the Explorian series until
they until there's sort of a
reconfiguration or sort of a v2 of any of
those. Those are pretty loud.
If the noise doesn't bother you
some people are like yeah, it's a blender,
a blender's a blender, it's gonna be loud.
That's great.
What's nice is that the performance,
the blend quality that you get from all
the machines no matter how loud they are,
are the same. So you
can save by having your machine be
a little louder and still have the smoothies
the creamy wonderful smoothies
or the ability to make nut butters,
hot soup, ice cream.
The capabilities are
all the same between all of the machines
no matter how loud they are.
And I should say this.
We got these earmuffs
for our little guy.
And we put them on his head when we
run the blender. He loves blending.
And we probably don't put them on as much
as we should. I have a
dad version of these in one of our boxes
and I need to get it out. I'll put a link
to the earmuffs that I use for
myself and for the baby,
link in the description. And you
can't really go wrong by using these when
you're blending.
You're going to protect your ears.
It's like wearing sunglasses when you're
outside no matter how quiet how much
of a machine you get.
So I guess a hack would be to
get the least quiet,
one of the most noisy, one of the, sort
of, tier 3 and get
a get a set of these.
Bottom line if you want one of the
quietest machines
A300 or Pro 750 because of the true metal
finish.
And if you don't really care.
Grab another one they're all they're all
pretty loud. There are Vitamix machines
are very powerful.
Thanks for watching.
We'll see the next one.
Bye, guys.
