My two monitors as well as the iMac is plugged into a brand new surge protector which is then plugged directly into the 3-pronged outlet in the wall. I can only assume it's all grounded properly?

I'm using 1/4" TRS patch cables from the MBox to the monitors. Each one has been very carefully ran to avoid any possibly contact with a power cable. I've even moved every cable while I listen to the noise but the movement doesn't seem to change anything. The Mbox is connected via USB into the 1st USB outlet on the iMac (far right when viewing the screen, far left when looking at it from behind). That cable is also kept away from any and all power cables.
I'm talking of the powersupply of your monitors.
