My Hitachi M12VC weighs 6 pounds (2.72 kilograms), without the base. I have seen a noise spec. of 79.5 dB for it. No wood router is going to be very quiet because of the nature of the device but this is a lot better than 90dB or worse. I haven't run the Hitachi yet, but the 1.5hp Ryobi router I currently have on my machine is as noisy as any router I have heard.
You can use the non-round routers in two ways. Bolt them to a horizontal plate on your Z axis assembly, or make a clamp that fits their particular shape.
To make a template, apply a layer of box tape to the router where you want to have a clamp plate located. Apply a coat or two of carnuba car wax to the tape where the clamp plate will attach, and buff the wax. Cut a hole in a piece of 1/4" birch plywood (or similar) to the rough shape of the router body so that there is about 1/8" gap around the hole when the plate is placed over the router in the position that you want it to be located. Support the plate securely with the router inverted on a table top. Now mix up some Bondo or Featherlite automotive body filler and backfill the gap between the plate and the waxed tape that is around the router body. Let the filler harden. Remove the plate, sand the excess filler flush with the plate. Now you have an accurate template to use for marking the material that you will use to make your permanent router clamp plate(s). Just be sure that the router can be easily removed from the plates. You don't want them to become a permanent part of the router. Remove the tape from the router.
Your motors should be fine. It depends on the gantry weight and drive system.
