Yes I have it mounted on the bottom of the sump using the base with the rubber feet and if you turn it up past level 2, the HUM travels from the front room of my house all the way to the back of the house and is VERY noticeable. Its so bad I actually had to close my bedroom door just to sleep last night and it was only Level 3.

Try a sound dampening pad under the pump. I bought a couple from BRS and they do work but you need to put it in a ziplock if it's going into the sump.
