Everyone speaks highly of these quivers but I have never been around a louder quiver that vibrates more. I have to be missing something obvious. It is shaking for at least a second after I shoot. I have went through the adjustments and it still absolutely horrible. The adjustment up and down took some serious force to get it to move even with all four screws all the way out.
 
You gotta put the sides of the flat bill hat over your ears so you don’t hear it..


JK, never noticed mine to be loud but I consider my bow kinda loud so maybe that’s where it’s coming from.
 
Not a fan of them myself. When I had one years ago, it came with pretty much every screw loose. Got rid of a lot of the noise by tightening the screws that clamp around the carbon rods and snugging the screw for the cam lock. I think there’s just too much leverage for the small sight mount to support. I also reversed the mount on the sight so that it cantilevered toward the riser to get it as close as possible.

I’m switching back to the cheap G5 quiver I had. The expensive POS will go on my backup bow.

I have a tight spot 5 and I have experienced the same thing when it comes to noise.

I feel like mine is fairly loud as well. Something that might help is sliding the rubber deal on the carbon rod up to your cable guard. Should help dampen it

Mine will rattle if i dont make sure arrow tips are pushed all the way up into the quiver...no matter how much i tighten up the screws on the individual arrow holders, it seems arrows slip a bit after a few shots and start rattling.
 
Make sure the arrows are tight in place. There is two clicks on the holder iirc. Might have to push them in more also make sure they are seated up into the head of the quiver if mine aren't seated tightly they rattle.
Yep, this. And its a bit of a PITA to see and ensure the arrow tips are actually properly seated in the depressions inside the upper cowling of the quiver
 
Negative is that where it’s supposed to be?

I think all 4 sides of it are different thicknesses. Rotate it until it wedges against the cable guard or your rest pretty tight. Should dampen it a fair bit

Or slide the whole quiver down and wedge it against your string stop. Either way, wedging it against something should help
