Who has experience with fancy hubs?

I never heard of Chris King until I started this build.

Now the more I'm looking into them I notice that Campagnolo doesn't build hubs anymore. They got out of that part of the market.

look nice, pricey, light

All very nice and I have heard of Phil Wood before but these are essentially Boutique Hubs.

I bought a partial Shimano 105 groupset and I have a set of 105 hubs that are almost identical to the Campagnolo hubs I used to build the wheels.

I'd like to build a gravel bike next and I'm considering a few things like disc brakes.

Are these hubs worth it to you guys? Do you like the extra noise some of them make?
