I don't see the issue with noisy socks.
I've been running 2 different designs for over 7 years now and neither was/is noisy

My socks are held by a piece of plex at the top of the water line in the highest point in my sump where the water comes from the DT. There is an inch drop from the socks to the water level in the next chamber.

I'd like to see what designs are causing noise ...
