Your picture proves nothing irrelevant. The 45 has twice the diameter wound channel as the 9mm.
And a 10mm is easily 50% louder than 45 acp, hot loads nearly double. Before you say something stupid, look at the data and remember decibels are logarithmic in scalel.
Its a temporary cavity in gel. While that gel has the same density as flesh, bullets don't affect flesh in that exact way. And it is generally considered that the temporary wound cavity made by pistol calibers don't actually contribute to real wounding, but only when you are pushing 3000fps with rifle rounds and causing GIANT temporary wound cavities. So its that thin hole in the middle that is killing you, not the big bubble at the start. That cavity just seals in a split second, while the central wound suffers severe bleeding.
I don't know how louder it really is, but i once shot an AK indoors without earpro as a kid and it wasn't that big of a deal as far as i remember. You are fighting for your life, who gives a shit, im not gonna pick calibers based on dB.
