I find the red pads reasonably quiet compared to other carbon wheels/pads. My brakes/wheels make, what I can only describe as a 'whizzing' noise while braking, its not overly loud and not as loud a 303 Fire Crests and whatever pads are supplied with them.
The pads are pretty quiet under normal braking but as loud as a police siren under heavy braking, as in a steep hairpin descent. The noise is so loud it scares all the riders around me and myself as well. Again this doesn't happen normally but when it happens it's quiet scary!
I think you may not have your pads set correctly or some other problem. My red pads have a slight sound. This is true on a set of 2014 Bora 35's and a pair of 2016 Bora 50's (both tubular).
