Silent hubs

I have a shimano wheelset 16 20 that really ok ride fine after 4500
miles. Well the best thing about them is the freehub is dead silent.
I have decided I really like that in wheels so want to build myself a
set. Stealth riding is cool like being in a Stealth jet fighter under
the radar
Seems Shimano Ultegra 6800 best option I believe freehub is very
quiet. They only come in 32 or 36 drilling and I would prefer 24 28.
Anyone know of a very quiet freehub compared to Shimano.
On the MTB I have a Formula freehub which is as quiet as the Shimano
freehub on my road bike. Don't remember the exact part number but I
replaced my last 6-speed UG freehub with a 7-speed HG hub for MTB.
Many folks with other freehubs don't need to holler "on your left" when
rolling downhill because you can hear the GRRRR.
