Hegel hum?


Spent a week or two enjoying my new H400 and noticed a faint hum between the time I turn it on and before I play music. Also there when I pause after playing a while. Note that the hum is only apparent when I bring my ear a foot away from the amp. I’m quite pleased otherwise but am wondering if this is normal?

hum out of speaker indicative of ground loop 

hum out of box indicative of DC offset causing toroidal vibration

hums are annoying. You might try a DC filter ...ala,
