How to reduce CD Transport noise?

my Sony SCD-1 sits at about 10' from my listening spot, and the noises made by the transport, to me, are just incredibly distracting during quieter music passages, particularly in classical music. The noise made by the SCD-1 is no more than that of other players I have heard, matter of fact this has been one of my long-time complaints about CD players. Does anyone know of a product or method to reduce the noise from the mechanical parts of CD players?

Yup, I found that, too.
But problem is, he is too busy (I hope...)! Has someone actually heard from him lately?

I've read references to noisy transports on two units I've owned, Parasound and now Cambridge, and this subject keeps coming up. Neither of mine have audible noise during play and I have to believe that there is a fault with these noisy units that could be remedied with service. Huh? What did you say?
