I'm happy with my old SDI C4 an (I think) even older Borgelt B.40. Both
make nice noises of the appropriate type and the B.40 has a really fast
response.

Conversely, a friend recently installed an S.3 and is less than delighted
with its sounds and especially with its lack of a silent band between
zero and -1 kts.

I was going to ask what on earth is a SDI C4 but then I thought that I really don't care. Fly with what works for you and floats your boat I say, expressing sympathy with the original posters point of view....
