I think that there are a couple of factors that come into play regardless of the helmet itself. Finding a helmet that fits the shape of your heard, and that is also sized correctly is bound to make a difference in the noise level regardless of the helmet itself.
I own a Shoei GT Air and find it to be very quiet. However, I have read reports from others who felt that it was rather loud. My first thought was that they either bought the helmet in a size that was too large for them, or that the basic shape of the helmet was just wrong for their head (or possibly both with the looseness occuring in an attempt to compensate for a helmet shape that isn't a match for the head shape). This is why I like to buy my helmets in a store where I can try them on first. I go for the snuggest possible fit but without hot spots or pain points. You can count on the fit loosening over time, but don't bet on the hot spots going away entirely.
