Most HID's will buzz to a certain extent (even factory HID's do this), though it is usually more from the ballast than the bulb. It really depends how much of a buzz there is, and how loud it is.

It's hard to diagnose something like this over the internet, through text.

If it's a loud buzz, maybe the bulb connection isn't great. I accidentaly flipped the HID switch on when only one build was in and it was a super loud buzz, I would try readjusting the bulbs and making sure they are securely in there.

Mine does it too, quite loud. I wouldn't worry about it.

I used to retrofit a lot of headlights (HID projectors, ballasts, wiring) and the buzzing is normal.

I'm pretty sure that the buzzing (which is normal) you are referring to is coming from the ballast.
