Honestly it sounds like you may want to get your fans checked out. Or perhaps you work in a totally silent environment? Loud is of course subjective, but my rMBP has the quietest laptop fans I've ever used.
Oh, by far this is the quietest laptop I've used. Most of the time. If I'm playing a game or docker pegs a cpu, that changes. It may still be better than other laptops, I don't know anymore, but once the fans get about 3k they start to get pretty loud. Below that I don't really hear them.
