ARCAM CD23 Transformer Buzzzzzzzzz


My CD23 is buzzing - I am assuming it is the transformer. The buzz occurs even though the power button is OFF, but stops when I pull the plug. AC is measuring no abnormal voltage. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know where I can get a replacement transformer? While I'm at it...anyone had their player modified?

I have a FMJ33. The transformer noise can be hearded at close distance (1 feet) to the CD player. My friend used to have the same transformer noise with his previous FMJ33 player, too. So, I assume it is a normal transformer noise. The noise only occurs when I turn the CD player on.

If you find more information on Arcam tranformer problem and replacement, please keep us posted. Thanks.
