So my X Therm is probably about 3 years old now, which I assume makes it an "old" version. I was initially reluctant based on that same concern that it would be too noisy. Personally, I don't find it to be all that noisy. It does kind of sound "papery" when moving around on it, but that sound isn't loud enough to bother me or my wife, awake or asleep.
If you can imagine what one of those foil emergency blankets might sound like if you were to move it around, it sounds kind of like that. But again, when its in the context of wind/insects/ambient noise, it's barely noticeable.
