These two reviews have contradictions. one reports the unit can hardly be heard, the other only the lowest setting can be lived with. ???

The lowest settings can be lived with noise wise but don't pump enough moisture. I run mine full tilt at night or when nobody is watching tv or anything. I love this unit but it is loud.

Initially it is fairly quite but fairly soon it gets loud. Humidifies fairly well but does not do an area as large as they advertise.

It it's not broken, mine does the same thing. I just don't use the lowest setting.

I heard that too. But this one is quiet. Most of the time, no sound at all. Rarely I hear small air mix like sound.

I have two units. One is dead silent in the idle mode, the other has a barely detectable white noise. Try double-clicling on the Play/Stop button to change into another audio mode, such as for speech.

Two of the settings are sound active, one will go completely off, and one stays going slowly when there is no sound, It has a built in Mic

Hi. On my unit sound is very minimal but you must see steam and very solid one. Your unit probably broken as mine after a month of usage. I would recommend you to return it.

The problem is not just the speakers. There isn't sufficient amplification to product acceptable sound levels.best to get a sound bar or an inexpensive receiver and speakers. YMMV

There is a volume for the sounds This may allow you to set it very low or possibly off. Although I have not tried to set it that low so I'm not certain.

You can turn the volume low enough that you cannot hear it. Check your settings.

sounds like it has a problem, there should be no noise coming from unit, contact manufacturer or place of purchase.

Not the way I have it set up.... I just turn the volume from my tv all the way down, otherwise you can hear both...

There is a switch to make volume either loud or soft, but I can't tell that much difference between them (seems loud on both)

There is a high and low setting.high is pretty loud.low is still loud-_-but not too

Oh! It sounds like there's something seriously wrong with it. I use both of mine 24/7 and none of them have ever made the slightest sound.

I got some feedback when using the amplifier in a small room and at high volume. Try lower volume or any close wall at front. If feedback is always present, maybe is defective.

hi, I turned it up as much as could( I live in an apartment complex). I did not notice any disturbances. unfortunately I cannot tell what decibels it was.

No, when the one I have is turned up to maximum it would be most definitely too loud for a person with normal hearing. You might check to see if the set up connections are done correctly. Just a suggestion
