How accurate is it though?
I could use an app to measure levels. Will be taking a bunch of toys to the range tomorrow. So can get some tests recorded. I did do some 50 foot testing to see if there was any poi shift, and found nothing with both units on the 700mm Panthera.
Going to test on a few other guns as well tomorrow and see what happens.

When I test a new airgun silencer, it's in an empty back room of the house. The echo will tell you pretty quickly how well a design works. Donny's line has a high-pitch tinny sound to my ears.

That is the thing with the DB readings. They all sound different to different people in the pitch, tone, and freq of the sound. To me if I can shoot in my backyard with my neighbors not knowing what I am doing..... this will typically tell you if a silencer is loud or not.

We need to meet up 701 and do some shooting some time. We can try everything out together and compile a list.

That would be very awesome!!
I'd be willing to pitch in toward you buying a budget sound meter. LMN.

I would have bought STO silencers a long time ago, the science behind them sounds great — however a for-me-bothersome-gun-lengthening-device must at least look attractive....
And STO's were just plain & boring aluminum cans, no grooves, lines, or recesses.
The photo you posted gives the impression that this STO has a non-smooth surface — is that so? If yes — I am interested (but on the STO webpage I don't see this same surface....).

You are correct it is plain and boring, but it works awesome.
My .25 M3 is back yard quiet at 85+ ftlbs.

I have given DonnyFL a chance.
I even bought an adapter to use my firearm silencer on my M3.
The STO Falx does the best job.

That's impressive! Wow, 85FPE from a .25cal — nice!
I wonder if a machinist would be able to produce a nicer looking outside can for the STO's — with a design similar to the DonnyFL's Gen. 1 or 2, or my preference, the 0dB design with the crossing lines.

What kind of power are you pushing with the FX? Which leads me to my next question, which core did you go with from STO?

I am shooting a H&N Heavy Slug .38gr 1004fps for 85 ftlbs.
I have the high flow core.

Both units tested on the AAA Paradigm. Was shooting the Fx 25.4gr 22 pellets at 880 fps and to my ear at least the smaller RYU sounded better.

Cool.
More options — BETTER!
Question: How many inches does the quick connect system add to the OAL of a gun?

Not wishing to be a downer but these look very similar in design to the impulse air mods. Conical segments, just different outer look. Am I missing something?

I wish more moderator companies would step up and present the science and results of their designs. Silent Thunder Ordnance is the closest one to doing this. They seem too small or have another gig to take it to the next level.
