Hi,
Have you checked to make sure nothing is rubbing? Is the sound loud enough to record and upload for me to hear?
Also, when you replaced them, did you replace the entire strut assembly or only the shock portion?
Let me know.

A howling sound is usually the result of a failed bearing (wheel/hub). Does the sound change pitch when making turns?
Let me know.

This is common when the bearing hub goes out, depending on which side you hear the noise on, here is how to change the hub out.
Here is a video to show how to press out the axle bearing with instructions below for your car:
