Definately don't turn your filter off for that length of time.

If it's an external cannister filter that's sitting on the floor (or on
a shelf), try getting some sort of pad for it to sit on (eg. a soft,
rubber pad to absorb vibration). Also minimise points of contact
between hoses and your stand/tank/floor.

If all this fails, swap to a couple of internal filters as has been
suggested already.

Mouse pads have done wonders for me at reducing vibrational noises,
especially from one of my air pumps.
