Running CCI Clean 22 target suppressor 45gr (1000fps) and CCI suppressor subsonic 45gr hollow point (970fps)
It is cleaned like crazy after every few mags and anti seize on the caps and center.

All ports are aligned and this thing even on a 10/22 and the TX22 with and without holding the slide and bolt closed makes a damned good pop. Every round is as loud as the first, The ammo is subsonic but not even near as quiet as a friends P22 with a sparrow.
On the flip side if I get the can wet then it is literally "Hollywood quiet". The sound difference between the TX22 and 10/22 is identical.

The P22 and the sparrow is much quieter than my setup. I have even put the sparrow on the TX22 and it's much quieter than the Nyx. (as in the brass hitting the ground is louder than the firing and cycling of the firearm)

Not complaining (really) this is my first suppressor and I spent the extra per reviews and research that the Nyx is the quietest item for the 22's I have.

Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!

The NYX and NYX mod 2 that I have are a bit louder than my Mask, so you aren’t wrong that they aren’t the quietest. With that said, I love them for their weight and being able to clean them any way I want since they are titanium.

My NYX MOD 2 is a little louder than my other rimfire cans especially on pistols. What separates it from a lot of others is the small OD and lightweight that lets it pretty much disappear on the end of your gun.

Thanks Scrambler07 and Glocked,

Sounds like this is operating as designed and agreed  as per size, weight, material wise this can be a bit louder than a heavier metal can.

Much appreciated!

i dont know if ive heard a single person brag about the sound performance of a energetic armament can. they all seem to suppress stuff just 'okay.'

IMO, the coolest thing they make is the ID ring.

Nyx on pistols has pretty rough FRP. It does sound better to me on follow up shots. It’s nice on a rifle though.
