NASA's X-59 'quiet' supersonic jet heads for a new red, white and blue paint job

It appears to take the crack or the snap out of the boom. Could this be done with that long cone? Giving a larger apparent pressure area for the barrier? And a lower frequency of that barrier?

Id imagine a steady acceleration could break the sound barrier without making too much noise ?
 
I have never heard of any other method, except steady acceleration. In the atmosphere.

But I love the acceleration, the duty cycle acceleration, of those satellite killers. It's the most spacial precision that I have ever seen.
