Default Transmission noise during deceleration

I only really hear it a higher gears (3rd 4th 5th and 6th gear) but when I'm driving while car is in gear and I let off the gas there is a noise ( sounds like a bearing noise) any clue what bearing or if this a common problem

Clutch buzz maybe, if so, it's only annoying to hear but won't hurt anything in the long run.

It should only be around 2-4k rpms if it's the buzz.

I literally just replaced the clutch with an oem unit and the buzz disappeared.

I have the same thing after installing my Exedy OEM clutch. Its the springs in the friction disk buzzing/rattling around. Shouldn't hurt anything, but its sure annoying. I'll end up replacing mine again here soon with a new unit so I don't have to listen to it.
