Finally after hunting this thing around here in germany for some weeks it was delivered. Something is wrong or i am only to dump to set it up? Here is the humming it produces. Fresh out of the box recorded via my soundcard. Is it D.O.A.?
Nope, that's a ground loop. http://www.smr-home-theatre.org/Ground-Loops/ First make sure you don't have a rat's nest of cable behind the stereo causing cross-talk -- I solved my last ground loop problem by bundling each cable up with a zip tie. (And I do mean rat's nest.... server, CRT monitor, printer, tivoli model two plus subwoofer, Squeezebox 2, fm and am antennas, two ethernet switches, two wireless routers, printer, three laptops, cisco router, three power strips, and assorted USB geegaws.)
