Any gun with a muzzle velocity above the speed of sound (1,126 fps) is going to have a moderately loud crack. You'd be better off getting the .22 version of that pellet gun (which will be subsonic) or shooting subsonic rounds through a traditional .22 rimfire rifle.
eta: you could also try shooting a heavier .177 pellet. Beeman sells them.

I doubt he is breaking the sound barrier. Switching to a heavier pellet may help if that is the problem, but the sound of a "quiet" pellet gun like the Gamo's is still quite loud.
