If you think about it the hydraulics flowing in the lines are relatively quiet. the piston lifting or lowering the boom is just as quiet...so where is the noise ? it comes from the pump and the prime mover for the pump..If its a diesel engine its loud.. If its steam driven ,somewhere there is a lot of fuel being burned and that location is loud...If its run by an electric motor and Even if its just in the bypass mode the fluid screaming through the control valves will be loud...So now ,,,Going back to your question ..the boom is practically silent but the prime mover makes the whole thing very loud indeed. 90-100db at times...

What is a excavator?
EXCAVATOR are heavy construction equipment consisting of a boom, stick, bucket and cab on a rotating platform (known as the "house"). The house sits atop an undercarriage with tracks or wheels. A cable-operated excavator uses winches and steel ropes to accomplish the movements. They are a natural progression from the steam shovels and often called power shovels. All movement and functions of a hydraulic excavator are accomplished through the use of hydraulic fluid, with Hydraulic cylinders and Hydraulic motors. Due to the linear actuation of hydraulic cylinders, their mode of operation is fundamentally different from cable-operated excavators.
