      I'm upgrading my the x/y and e steppers on my homebrew corexy, and I'm looking for some advice. I've narrowed it down to:
      LDO-42STH60-2004MAC
      MT-1704HSM168RE aka E3D High Torque Axis Motor

      I am sure either one would do the job, but I want to keep the printer as quiet as reasonably possible. It seems like the LDO is going to be louder, since it is acting against a higher rotor inertia. Does that seem like a reasonable assumption?

      For background, I'm running about 15V on a Duet2. The extruder end is non-geared. My pressure advance is set pretty high, which means there are a lot of fast extruder movements.
