IF Honda measures their Db levels @ 9' then it's for a reason. IF they were significantly quieter than the competition @ 23' I'd bet the farm their marketing dept would tell us all about it. I suspect (I'm admittedly a skeptic of all marketing) that Honda found a way "truthfully" publish lower db's that may or may not reflect an actual side by side noise comparison. At the end of the day the red and blue ones are damn quiet but the yellow ones are catching up.
BINGO!!!!!
I don't buy that.
Different manufacturers have different test parameters and since there no "standard", why should they get together to form one? The exact same thing happens in battery land.
Rather than beat this thing to death, take their DB specs and adapt to the competition distance specs. And move on. Why keep calling people, even at the company that can't even agree.
