Hi,
I just laid my hands on a new EHX Magnum 44 to use with my AX-8 and Suhr 1x12 Badger Cabinet.
There is 65 dB SPL (measured from mic'in distance of a cab) constant Pink Noise coming out of the Speaker, when Magnum is connected to the speaker. Bright Switch off, Volume at 9.00. It goes higher when the knob turned up, but doesn't go down.
(Speaker cable is high quality. Original power supply, the power supply is connected to a reasonably well-grounded power socket. (My studio monitors are plugged in the same socket, they are very very silent)).
With or without AX-8 Connected the noise is there. I cancelled the ground with the power supply, it's still there. (Duck tape the power lead's metal parts going into the wall).
It's not VERY loud. But it's there, in recording situations, mic'ing the amp and stuff it would be a problem. And for "home" appliances, it's annoyingly existent.
Shouldn't it be silent, when nothing is coming out of it?
@yek @ML SOUND LAB have you had such problems when using yours?
