Me, or the OP?
If me, then yes, everything is tight & positioned correctly. I've installed many brake pads on bicycles. They are only noisy while braking hard (usually on a 10%+ decline, coming to a stop from 30+mph).
I'm thinking it may be a combination of the compound used in the kool-stops and the braking surface on my wheel. I tried
Aztecs on the same bike, and they were nice and quiet.
