First you are comparing apples to oranges when putting an All Season tire up against a Summer only tire. The DWS is an excellent All Season tire. It is quiet. The poster advised only the rear were changed thus all the noise from the worn front. The DWS is a harder compound (wears longer) than a summer tire, so it would make more noise to some extent, but like was said in other posts, 4 new tires will generally be quieter than the previous tires because they have more tread.
I would argue that while the DWS may initially be slightly louder than a new Summer tire, the DWS will be quieter over the life of the tire as it wears much better than a Summer.
Of course these are just opinions and I have no facts to base this on other than the DWS will wear longer.
