why is this thing humming?

I just hooked up my new mcintosh 207. I made sure the cables arent bundled and what not everything looks pretty clean. But this amp is humming something bad. I rehooked up my rotel 1095 no hum what soever. This is up setting since the reason I bought this amp was the Rotel was supposed to be the wink link. Please help I need my tunes up and going.

Matt:

Have you tried a cheater plug (converts 3 prongs to 2 prongs)? This next comment may sound a little too tongue in cheek ... but the more expensive the equipment the greater the chance of ground loops and hums ... this never happens to $100 Panasonics. The following thread gets into the whys & why nots.
