Sound is very subjective, so for me the browns on this keyboard has a very satisfying sort of bump. I am not talking about the tactile feeling, but the sound is not a click. I personally think that typists on MX Blues would really really miss that click, as the sound is close to the same satisfaction. They are definitely not silent keys by any means, but I cant imagine anyone having noise complaints, whereas the blues can be annoying to some.
Also keep in mind that even keyboards with the same switches can feel and sound vastly different. You can see this in my KBT Race II review, where you can compare recordings of it along with 2 other boards with brown switches (and several other switches)
