What I don't get is, you can buy a new 600-700 hp car(vette, Shelby, hellcat) and have a whisper quiet gears that handle the power and go 100,000 + miles. If this gear set is expensive so be it, it should be offered.
So the choices are Richmond, Motive, Yukon. They all suck, just bought a another set of Yukons from Randys because they actually advertise quiet operation. I receive the gears in a Yukon box and they have Motives part number stamped in them. Go Figure?
Ive heard some some performance gears made by Motive are being cut in Italy and some in china, who knows, I just want quiet gears too.

You will never get away from all NVH unless you use nice soft rubber bushings in the suspension thus losing handling. It is a balance. Case in point the 2012 Shelby I had had very loud gear whine once I went to poly bushings along with stout suspension pieces. I recently put it back to stock and it returned to being quiet as a mouse.
