Damaged bearing races do make a droning noise. Did you use a tube over the shaft to push on the inner race when fitting them, or did you push on the outer race? If the latter then you will have damaged the bearings during fitting them. SKF quote "under no circumstances should pressure be applied to one ring in order to mount the other bearing ring".
