Did anyone ever got an Izumi Track chain silent?
I doubt it. If you want quiet, get a Wippermann 1Z1 and learn to live with the slightly challenging aesthetic.

I've found Izumi's are never quiet on certain sprockets/chainrings. At the moment I'm using Dura Ace for both and it's OK but does get noisy if it goes dry.

Did anyone ever got an Izumi Track chain silent? I've been riding the Jet Black for over a year now and it never really stopped making noise.
I tried both dry and wet lube from Muc-Off (dry lube never really worked and wet lube caught all the dirt it could catch), WD-30 at some point (had to relube every 2-3 days) and now I'm using Squirt dry wax. Squirt seems to work at least for a week or two and keeps the chain clean.
