Faint buzz in speakers


There is a very faint buzz coming from speakers with amp on, but with no music stream playing. Can only be heard with ear right up to drivers. No buzz with amp off or muted. Decent amp & cabling. Is this faint buzz likely still there under music when it’s playing? Numerous noise reduction devices deployed including dedicated circuit, robust grounding, balanced power transformer, various filters. Thoughts?

In fact, it is so faint you have to place your ear right up against the cone to hear it.

@jmfinney As @yoyoyaya and @herman have pointed out, there's nothing wrong with the amp. With most speakers and most amps, if you put your ear against the driver you'll hear something and its not unusual that one channel might be quieter or have a different noise floor from the other.
