There are so many variables in those conditions, let alone a person's hearing sensitivities, the best any of us can do is sympathize.
The difference in pavement can not be understated!
This is a big part of why people with the same tires can have such varied levels of complaints. On my daily commute I drive over three very different surfaces and the changes are huge between them. It is like having a different car on each one of them. Anybody that drives primarily on a good or bad surface may just be missing out what others are experiencing.
