I too find it a bit loud with the top up. The drone of the engine is right behind your ears and convertible tops allow more noise in as the whole things doesn't seal like a regular car. But most of the noise is from the wind and engine. It is meant to be driven with the top down. If you are driving a lot with the top up - might be worth while to get a hard top. Assume that would reduce noise.
