Power filter for 20 gallon tank?

The 60Hz buzzing sound came from the impeller and magnetic drive assy,
of course. And the filter box acted as a resonator, amplifying the
sound.
I tried AquaClear and Aquaclear Jr. filters, and both made similar
noise.
I find the constant splashing sound of the water spilling back into the
tank
annoying, too. Maybe I should consider other options like a canister
filter.
Or I could get lucky and find an old Aquamaster on eBay or at a yard
sale...

I had no idea the older models buzzed.
I used sponge filters back then, and by the time I started using HOB's,
they didn't make any noises like that so I couldn't figure out what you
were talking about, LOL.
Sorry for the confusion. = )
