I gotone of Mean V's CSS for my Tribute. I was at the pro shop a couple of weeks ago, & a guy next to me was shooting an identical bow. Same stabilizer, leeches, & rest. He commented that my bow was much quieter than the one he was shooting. There's all the proof I need. I noticed it also, after I put it on. I am glad that i listened to those that recommended it on an earlier thread. Try it out, I'm sure you spend $$ on accessories & find out that u want to change it out some time. It's money well spent.
