Hey, just wanted to say "thanks" for the quick responses. I may try to clean up the power, but really, I never really hear it unless I am listening for it. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a defect!

Hiss at very low volumes
OK, I know that this is way too low-end for the folks here, but I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere else.
I have a new HT-in-a-box (Sony DAV-C700) system. I went this route for a small living room, primarily for compactness - the whole thing in one box. The sound is OK, actually pretty nice for what it is.
But: I've noticed a very low level hiss in the speakers that are not playing (e.g., the center & surround speakers during 2-channel play). It's not audible except if I put my ear right up next to the speaker, or if the volume is turned down to one-notch-above off.
Is this a function of the digital amplifiers it uses? Or, just a function of a low-end system? Or, maybe I have a malfunctioning unit?
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Dan
