Eric, architect here (who frequents St. Louis homes): if you're having issues silencing your HVAC, there are some liners that you can get. Also, sometimes the unit is overpressurized, which is an issue of improperly sized ducts or grilles. Try changing the grille first--even leaving it off--to test and see if it reduces the noise.
