Default What's the quietest compound bow for 2014?

I would like to see the decibel stats included in a bows performance description.
What is the quietest bow on the market and best dampening accessories?

True...the Arrow Trade reviews are "independant" of bow manufactors, so should be closer to the truth...

Almost any bow can made a lot quiter some up to 50%...the trick is well tuned bows...some untuned bows are 25% noiser...shoot heavier arrows...light arrows pushing min GPI [grains per inch- 5 gr on most] are extremely noisy...string dampeners, limbsavers stabilizers all contribute to quiteing of the bow...

I use a heavier arrow, and string whiskers, which are hands down the most effective dampening accessory.
