Well, fine, but that makes no sense to me. I absolutely love certain engine sounds. The starting cough cough sputter and rough idle of a big radial like the DC3s I used to work on is almost akin to making love. It just tickles a special part of the brain. Anyone who has been to an airshow and heard either a big radial or V12 in a warbird cruise by at close range...
I've been around the modern fighter jets a lot. Awesome in their own way. But the sound of the piston powered warbird is on another level.
