Yeah, I've had to do a few tweaks to transformers and coils to make them quiet. One choke I had was really noisy, even after isolating it from the chassis with rubber grommets. The laminations were very tight and I was stumped for a while. It turned out that the coil bobbin was loose from the core, and all I had to do was shove a wooden wedge shim in between the core and coil, and it quieted right down. Usually these issues are purely mechanical, though there are some power supply conditions that could exacerbate it for sure.
