So, I go away for my job each summer, and unplug my system completely from AC when I do. I returned earlier this week, and my Scott 850D now has a persistent low volume hum - it sounds like about 60hz. I didn't change any connections, other than unplugging from the wall. It did not have this when I left in June.
This Scott has a selenium rectifier.
Any ideas?
