I know the horse is dead, but I'm looking for recommendations on a 6.5CM can.
Priorities are:
Max decibel reduction
Minimal or no "First Round Pop".

Not worried about size, weight or caliber versatility. I'd like to keep it under $1500 if possible but I'll consider higher priced options.
Current considerations are Ultra 9 and Hyperion.

I've seen what PewScience has reviewed but the tests are a few years old now, and I know there have been some updates to the Ultra 9. Unsure about the Hyperion- While the Hyperion won in PewScience testing, some say the Ultra 9 .264 is quieter than the Hyperion in .30... I had been warned about falling down the rabbit hole...but here we are.

Is there a clear cut winner for my desired characteristics?
 
Don't overlook the Otter Creek Hydrogen L 6.5, CAT JL, PTR Vent. Splitting hairs at some point as the supersonic crack is going to be there regardless...
 
The two best 6.5 cans on the market are the Airlock ZG 6.5 and the US OG 6.5.

If you want stupidly quiet without worrying about length or weight or looking like a sex toy, the AB Raptor 10 with 5” reflex fills that role.

PS - the TBAC suppressor summit reports are another great resource for comparing many suppressors.
