If you can do the conversion, I am very happy with my Stanley blower.
Mine sits in the attic, but on the 1/2 plywood access cover between the attic and closet. I could cut down on most of the noise that resonates through the plywood by hanging the blower, but I haven't seen the need. Inside my cabinet I have a fresh, and by no means loud, desktop fan that is loud enough on it's medium setting to drown out the Stanley blower when listening from my bed 10 feet away. There are computers louder than this thing.
In other words, it is awesomely quiet. It moves plenty of air, and they are inexpensive.
You will never be able to completely remove the sound of rushing air, but I use insulated ducts, and I believe it helps quite a bit.
