Planning to build an aeroponic system, the only thing that makes me worry is noise, can anyone suggest a quite high pressure water pump?

I found out that the most silent is Shallow Well Jet Pump, but it is still about 60 db. Is there a way to make a silencer for it maybe?

Quiet and high-pressure are mutually exclusive; pick one.

The Drummond shallow well pumps are super quiet. Plenty of pressure, and pretty cheap at Harbor Freight for like $180 I've had this one for like 3 years, use it every day.

How about high power submersible pumps? Like this one, https://www.powertoolworld.co.uk/makita-pf1010-electric-submersible-drainage-pump-1100w-240l-240v
Is it more quite than a high pressure one? Anyone experienced?
