I have been wondering if the typical HST whine is more quiet on the larger tractors than the small ones. For instance, my prior B3200 would whine like a baby without its bottle, which drove me crazy. Something about that whine over riding that diesel sound. Now on my L4400, I don't really notice the whine, its more noticeable in high gear especially if the rpm's aren't high enough which is to be expected. But just being in Low and doing work with correct rpm's I don't notice it. Anytime I happen to catch a video or see a smaller B or BX series operating, the whine really stands out.
So, how loud is everyone's whine on their L series or larger tractors? One of the reason's I have been pondering this is I kinda feel my L4400 is a little weak for its size and because I have less noticeable whine, I'm wondering if the hydraulic flow is sufficient?
