Default Can't Stop Humming

One slight possibility comes to mind. Does the amp seem very very sensitive
? That is, does it sound like you've got sort of full chat, with the gain
control up at only say number 2 ? The reason I ask this, is that I did once
have a ProSound combo that suffered intermittently from hum, and it
eventually turned out to be due to a feedback resistor in the first opamp
stage, that ws going intermittently open circuit, increasing the gain of the
stage so much when it did, that it picked up huge amounts of hum.

Hi, Arfa;

No, except for the hum when the cable is plugged in, the amplifier
behaves nicely and normally at all settings.
