Hi!
I'm new to the forum, so greetings from Finland to you all.
I got my new Marshall on saturday, the DSL20HR. Sound wise a great amp... But there's a faint background hiss or hum, that does not sound normal. It's like strong winds or traffic heard from a distance.
The noise is present even if no cables are connected to the input or loop, and all dials are at zero. Only dials that affect signal are resonance and presence, mostly resonance, which makes the noise more audible when turned up.
It's not loud, but it's there. None of my other amps make this. It's not from the house wiring, the same noise was there when I tried the amp at our rehearsal... umm... space? Room? Cave? Pit? What do you call it?
Also, at a Finnish forum an other member has the same problem. I'm thinking of returning the amp, since I think this is not normal... But is it? How's your new DSL? Should I worry, or just rock on? For it IS a great sounding amp.
Br,
JS
