Loudest chainsaw

[t4driller]

925 sxl Homelite. Stock muffler. Hurts my ears .View attachment 43745

That thing looks sweet with that wrap handle. Should of kept one for myself. I'm glad you got it though. [emoji2]

Don's @sawfun's gear drive 090 if I remember which one of his 090's correctly. That thing is louder than a Guantanamo Bay torture room.

Its likely the 090g Jim. I've found that 090's with a long 72 + inch bar under a heavy load, tend to shake the ground pretty good. Under a lighter load with a shorter bar, some Mac's (550, 660) are louder though. And a big gear drive 900 series Homelite seems made for ear bleed sessions, load or not.

That Mac up above looks like a square megaphone used on kart engines GEM made them along with others .I remember those days,10 or 12 out on the track running megaphones with alkie and castor oil .The smoke hung so thick on the turns you could not see the karts but you damn sure heard them .

I'm not sure if this is the loudest saw I've ever heard but it's gotta be close. You can feel it in your chest and will make your ears ring from 20yrds.

My modified Stihl MS261 makes a little racket...

The loudest modern saws I've been around are a couple of Husqvarnas at the TN GTG. Owned by @Hedgerow and @mdavlee, respectively.

Yeah they scream too

 

[Jughead]

Bone stock? McCulloch 7-10A

I'll second that

 

[mdavlee]

That is one of the best sounding saws I've ever heard. Matt's 346 and Alan's kart saw are both an ear piercing sound. My 346 wasn't quite that bad.

If your gonna plug that into a stereo and you want to get the full effect make sure it's a big powerful stereo and crank the volume to 11. Even then I'm not sure you'd get the full effect.
