The S9 is about 3 times the hashing power of the S7 for the same electrical power. I've just ordered on from Bitmain, which is a bit of a faff and with customs and stuff it's not cheap. I think it will be worth it, though it's going to get here mid/end January. It's been the top bitcoin miner since it's release. There's been talk about a replacement on more efficient chips for ages, but nothing definite and Bitmain are still making a killing on it and no one is particularly close to beating them, so why innovate?
I believe that it's actually a bit louder than the S7. They do chuck out a lot of heat....i'd want a pretty secure shed though
