If you're looking to avoid noise, stay away from both the Badger and the Paasche. I've had a Paasche compressor for years and have endured the noise it cranks out. Not only that, it doesn't have a tank or any kind of regulator. In fact, I paid more for that so-called airbrush compressor than I did for a Campbell-Hausfield 2 gallon tank compressor at Wal-Mart. The C-H compressor has the tank, the regulator, and I already had a vapor trap, so it makes a fine airbrush setup. Not only that, it comes with an extension hose, an on-off switch (which is really nice) and it's less than half the noise volume of the Paasche. Noise is a very important factor to me, too, because I live in an apartment. But this compressor does the trick, and it cost less than $100. <br /> <br />Whatever you do, stay away from the compressors sold by the airbrush companies. Buy their airbrushes, but buy a compressor from a company that specializes in compressors.
