I suspect that there are no TRANSFORMERS (2-windings, magnetically
coupled on a iron core) in this system. Rather, what they are CALLING
transformers are switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), that convert 120VAC
to low voltage DC to power the LEDs.
SMPSs are notorious noise generators. I found them in back-cans for
lighting in the bathroom of the home we bought in CA, generating
bodacious noise. When I went to local electrical supply looking for a
transformer, they tried to sell me another SMPS that they called a
"transformer."
