A quiet compressor?
There's no trick. Most manufacturers rate @ 90 PSI. Quincy is just one example. The Eastwood's 12.7 CFM is down a bit from a 60/80 Quincy, Ingersoll, etc., but there are always trade offs involved when someone is looking for something smaller, quieter, etc. I can talk on the phone, listen to music, have a normal conversation, etc. standing right next to my compressor. That was worth giving up a few CFM to me, and it's what the OP was asking for. And I have no problems running my Hutchins 4560 DA, sandblasting cabinet, etc.
