For a quiet helmet look for a wrap around visor, and aerodynamic vents. I currently have an Arai Astro J which is fiarly noisy, but used to have a Shoei XR800 & 1000 both were a lot quieter, due to thier design.

More importantly is make sure it fits you properly. The shuberg(sp?) is meant o be very quiet and has a sun visor and the Roof R10 (i think) is also very quiet.

As for bargins. I have been to shows on most days, and this last day myth, is just that. Go with CASH and im sure you can always squeeze a little more from them, also i find that lids are fairly cheap and its where i always get mine. Sometime be prepared to get last years model/colour.
