its just down to quality of all the internal parts and the final finish that makes it louder, there better everything fits together and the smoother the bearings are allows the sound to travel through the hub and resonate more making it sound louder.....
I think...
That's a load of bullshit, the sound is created by the drag the pawls have.
It's more about fast engagement than noise, but fast engaging hubs are almost always super loud...especially Hopes...
sorry to spoil you dreams but hopes aren't that fast engaging. they only have 24pts vs. 72 or 108 from other brands. that said i run hope pro2 myself and it doesn't bother me. just thought i'd throw it in.

the pro 2 singlespeed is loud as hell and bloody annoying but it has 48 engagements unlike the standard hubs. very nice!
