No..it doesn’t. The inlet-seal is on the machine itself, so it’s the same in both cases, and the red cyclone’s exit seal is also completely intact.

I think the sounds are different because the yellow seals better than the red. I think the red has air coming in through the seals from around the bin.

The noise you hear …
The noise you hear in the video comes entirely from the cyclone embly, not the brush-roll.

Also, the DC14 has a totally different Root Cyclone design; they’re the other way up, for a start!

I believe it’s due to the redesign of the internal parts of the Root8 cyclones.

Older models used a slightly different design, which showed a tendancy to clog over a period of time. The newer design doesn’t have this problem, but seems to be louder and higher-pitched.

My DC07 Clic, which uses the older design, is also quiet, like the red one.
