are all power conditioners noisy?


I just received a powervar, and I don't know why I didn't think of it before, but this stonkin' big transformer hums!
I've read reviews where they complain abount the amount of fan noise in some companies products.
To me, the power conditioner adding background noise- even though it's not coming out of the speaker, is very distracting.
Is there such a thing as a silent power conditioner, or should I just give up?

I use a Panamax Max 5500 ACRegenerator that uses a large transformer to decouple wall AC from AC provided to equipment... my ear has to be practically right up to the unit to hear any noise at all... and even then it's extremely low in volume.
