That doesn't mean that they're not noisy -- most of us are surrounded by 
dozens of noise sources that blend together and make any single source 
hard to hear. Your monitors could be noisy,  but the rest of the noise 
covers it up. Have you probed around them with a portable AM radio tuned 
to a clear spot near the high end of the AM broadcast band? I use a 
Kenwood TH-F6A talkie, which covers from below the AM band to nearly 1 GHz.

All of us can do ourselves a favor by implementing a "search and 
destroy" mission for RF noise sources. These two links provide a lot of 
practical advice on how to do it.
