40-180 slight hum
#4

My 40-190 has a similar slight hum to it, not a huge one (really just a mumble). I'm told that the wizardry 'neath the chassis has a "hum-bucker" in it, which can either be utilized or defeated by reversing the speaker wires. Upshot: wire in backwards, hum in speaker. (Mine, like yours, is small enough to leave it alone.) Anyone able to elaborate?
