Yes the Champion is a bit louder and I have one. I also have a Kipor 2000 watt as well from when they first came out. I used it on my old unit that had no air so extra wattage was not important. If I don;t need air and going to a busier campground I will throw in the small one for sound as I can run everything off it but the air. When I am going Boondocking or need air I will take the Champion. I think the biggest thing is the Kipor, Honda's and Yamaha's run in eco mode which makes them idle slower and more quiet. The Champion is pretty much going full tilt all the time. Too the ear the Kipor doesn't sound much quieter when it is all reved up with a full load but if just a small load or charging the batteries you can hardly hear it run.
