I wish you could try stuff beforehand in a quiet place to see if it's gonna bother you with annoying quiet noises. Unfortunately that's not really a thing. Luckily electronics has gotten better over time but a lot of stuff still does it, just usually less.

Can you do that thing where you flex some internal muscle and hear a loud rumbling that I assume is rushing blood? It's hard to explain. I think the muscle is related to the jaw, or maybe ear movement. It's not externally perceivable, but it's useful on an airplane.
