Or go a step further and build a small box, isolate the pump as much as possible within it and float it. Hell, maybe float the pump's box within another box and stick the kit-and-kaboodle on neoprene. That would pretty much take care of the great majority of direct vibration and any direct noise of the pump.

Without the money to cook up my block prototypes, I think this is going to be my next project. It'd sure be nice to get my D5s to stop rattling no matter what the circumstances.
