During S1, stenosed mitral valve try to close with power which produces a loud sound, while in S2 Atrial valve is calcified and lags to close so a soft sound.

Non-calcified stenosed Aortic valve is an early complication and there will be no change in heart sound

Thank you sir, how about a stenosed aortic valve without calcification???
