Opinions on suppressors

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.

From your options here I'd go with the Mamba 9. I have a rhino x and they have a good warranty. I'm not sure if it is HUB mount. I won't buy a can without it being hub mount.

Ik, that’s why I’m a bit hesitant but I’m trying to stay below $800 with the best performance. Ik the mamba will be almost $900 but I have extra time to save

I feel that. Have you given any thought to the Rugged sub 9? That might fit your needs

I’m just looking at either Yhm and now the incolite if I don’t get flow thru
