Help with PC fan noise

Alright just added a second pc fan for exhaust. I made a foam frame around it hoping it would make it quiet and it did but i was wondering if anyone had any other tips to make it almost silent

I was thinking i could suspend it with something so it making less vibration which would make less noise.

Is it on a 12V power adapter? I put mine on 9V power adapters. It makes it a good bit quieter. It also reduces the CFMs by 25%, so make sure you still have enough ventilation.
