also...if you can, place some flex hose between the pump and any solid structure it is hooked to.

I had most of my system hooked via rigid piping, and when I switched even 2 - 3" here and there it made a considerable difference in the noise.

try an old mouse pad. thats what i did and it worked wonders. could step it up a notch and take 2 mousepads, on each side of a piece of plywood, mount the pump to the wood, so the pump sits on mousepad, wood , mousepad stand floor.
