Strange question but it is what it is. How loud do you like your brake runs?

Personally I love a loud slam, it's a great way of telling me "The ride is over now" and I enjoy standing in the queue directly next to one and people get completely jumped and physically react to a shoutening gang of clanks before exclaiming something to their peers. I also like recording coasters and then you see the coaster go off camera and all you hear is "BANG TSSSS BANG TSSS".

What about you?

I didn’t think I had an opinion on this, but I’m convinced by your post. And I don’t know what a “shoutening gang of planks” is, but I want it.
 
I'm quite sensitive to sudden loud bangs and noises, so give me a soft magnetic break sound followed with some gentle hisses any day.
 
The magnetic breaks on B&M Hypers such as Mako....nice and quiet yet they have a cool sort of 'hum' if that makes sense?
