Don't forget that the decibel scale is NOT a straight-line scale. Given 0db as absolute silence, 10db is 10x louder, 20db is 100x louder, 30db is 1,000x louder, and so on. One thing that I've seen people do is to build a box, lined with egg crate foam, that they put over their genny to help quiet it down. One I saw, was a simple 3-sided box, foam lined, that killed a goodly portion of the sound. Others I've seen use baffles so air-flow is still available but sound is greatly reduced. If you're boondocking, with few, or no, neighbors, just the simple 3-sided box, aimed away from you, helps a lot.
