No, not at all on the SX3, the biggest part of the noise there is the slop in the pulley to spline. If noise is an issue, I would recommend the X2 with the belt drive. Smaller workspace, but direct pulley to shaft connection and it makes it very quiet. Only motor noise and cutting noise at that point.

I have a Belt driven X2 setting beside my SX3 and the noise is huge difference. I will have my SX3 that quiet soon though.
