Dan, Jim has both a Maytag and a Superba, but I'm guessing this inquiry involves the KitchenAid.
On later KitchenAid models they used thick rubberized sheets around the tank and inside the door to reduce noise. Your machine should at least be wrapped with fiberglass insulation around the tank. If there's none in the door or behind the lower access panel, you can install your own with some spray adhesive. The higher the density the better. I'd even go the extra step and install some behind the kick plate too.
Hobart didn't hype the 16 and 17 series machines as "a hurricane in a box" for nothing!
