I get comments all the time on how quiet my longbows is, and I use a Dynaflight '97 string. My arrows weigh 9-9.5 gpp. It's a deflex/reflex design.
When you switch strings, you have to re-tune, and not just the arrows. Besides making sure you have good arrow flight (not just watching the arrow fly--use O.L.'s method), be sure your nock fit is correct and your silencers are in the right spots. I use one small set of cat whiskers, tied on around the string. Moving them an inch or so up or down the string can make a difference. Rubber works best as a silencer in my experience.
