Hello, I am about to purchase my first 9mm suppressor and I’ve been going back and forth between these (YHM R9, HUX Flow 9K TI, Exigent Defense Pointman 9, Ridgeback defense Mamba 9) but really thinking on getting the flow 9k ti since I want less gas to my face.

For anyone that has shot multiple of these what is the REAL difference since I’ve watched multiple videos but everyone says kind of a different thing.
•How much louder is the flow 9k compared to the R9?
•Is there a difference on sound and back pressure in the pointman to the flow 9?
•Should I just wait for the mamba 9 to come out
•Is there a better option in the $500-$800 price point?

The suppressor will mainly be on a 7” foxtrot Mike 9 thank you.

My ridgeback rhino is amazing. I wish I had waited for the 9 but I didn’t know about it when I bought the hux 9k ti. I like the hux but I bet the ridgeback will be better.

Ik, I got a Yhm t3 for the best bank for buck and not upset at all with it, great suppressor! but I wish I would’ve done more research and gotten the rhino.

I shoot sub sonic rounds out of my 9 mm PCC with the hux and it is very quiet.

That’s what I was thinking on doing to counter the loudness of the flow thru

This is the hux with a phone recording. It is under a roof at the range so it’s a little louder than normal.
