I think the A359 comes very close to the A380 experience, especially in terms of cabin noise. Of course, it can't offer the visual spaciousness of the A380.
The A330 and A340 aren't half bad either, and in coach, I prefer the 2-4-2 layout - much better chance of having the seat next to you empty if you choose an outer or inner aisle seat. In terms of cabin noise, I feel the newer A330 have become quiter, whereas the A343 may be slow, but it is less noisy than the A346.
