There are several ways, to quite the noise, but still have the effect.
1) Install a rubber stopper to the tip of the nylon plunger (reduced noise)
2) Install a weaker coil (with reduced effect)
3) Install a blue or black rebound pad used for ramps on the backside of the fish tail (reduced noise)

If it is still too loud, unplugging it is probably the best answer.
I have done this with my current and previous FT, and for certain knockers such as TAF.

Best Regards,
