Printer is extremely loud during certain moves?

I've attached a video to demonstrate what it sounds like, I don't remember my printer ever being this loud when I first got it, it seems to only do it when it's doing fast and long "diagonal" moves. This started probably about 6 months ago, it's just starting to get really annoying... I've checked the tension on the belts for both x/y and the gears on the stepper motors appear to be tight. Anyone have an idea of what it could be, or is this normally how "quiet" it is lol.

RE: Printer is extremely loud during certain moves?

Sounds normalish - with dry bearings.  In general, more power means more noise.  X and Y moving at maximal rates will be loudest.
