Free hub silent on new wheels?

I have just fitted my first set of new wheels, fulcrum racing 7s, rim brakes. I swapped the cassette over with no issues And they run lovely and smooth but I have noticed there is no sound or click from the free hub. Is this normal on new hubs? Will it get louder as it wears in? Just want to check if I have done anything wrong? Thanks

Some hubs make a noise, some don't. You've only put the cassette on - you can't break the hub doing that.0

My fives were pretty silent when I got them, less so now but pretty much quieter than most. At least you know they were lubricated when assembled!0

As above some are just very quiet, I have a pair that you can barely hear even on a stand the other set is extremely loud. all down to design and/or lubrication.0
