Are there any pumps that are totally quiet?

I have a Danner mag 3 running close to 2 years, but it isn't the quietest pump I own, however it is reliable, once I sealed it up. Its mounted on a wad of sock about 3/4" tall with zip ties holding it in place, and it still hums in my heavy steel antec case.
---BUT---
I also have a maxijet 900 in my other watercooled box, sucking from a 2" pvc res, into a chevette core, and through a dtek spiral block, all with 1/2" tubing, and it is extremely silent. Its to the point where I had to pop the side panel off and feel it to see if its still running. Its mounted using the stock tripod rubber suction cup mount that came in the box. And best of all, it was from a generic pet store for about $20, on sale. Extremely quiet! and small too! much samller than the mag3 And the inlet and outlet are good for 1/2" tubing.
