X1 TV Box Buzzing Sound

I'm on my second box in 24 hours and they both make an irritatiing buzzing sound.

 

When Xfinity was installed last week, they gave me the older box (with digital clock), and that made a horrible fan/humming sound.

 

I called customer service and they told me I would have to swap it out. I drove 20 miles to my nearesr store and was given the X1 Box.  It makes a different annoying sound.

 

I had Fios for a decade and I never heard a single noise coming from the box.

 

Why is this such a problem?  Is there any quiet box?  Do I have to go back to Fios?
