The apparatus (1) includes a relatively rigid external housing (2), at least one noise producing component (3, 4, 5, 6) internal the housing (2), and a thin flexible enclosure (8) substantially sealed around the noise producing components (3, 4, 5, 6). A method of assembling the apparatus (1) is also disclosed. The method comprises the steps of assembling the noise producing component(s) (3, 4, 5, 6) into a sub-assembly, placing the sub-assembly into the interio (9) of the thin flexible enclosure (8) through an opening therein, substantially sealing the opening, and placing the flexible enclosure (8) within the external housing (2).
