Nozzle / cooling fan noise reduction

Hi there,

I was wondering, if there is a possibility to reduce the noise produced by the nozzle radial fan. This is the part with the most noise emission, after replacing the extruder fan with a 40mm noctua on my i3 mk2.
Are there any low noise replacements for axial fans? Or did anyone find a fan duct for that?
Thanks

Re: Nozzle / cooling fan noise reduction

there are larger nozzle fans (2cm instead of 1.5cm) also, I think they run a little slower for the same performance.
