Hi!

This sounds like a "hum bar" and is usually caused by dried up
electrolytic
capacitors in the power supply.

Yeah, but why on a brand new set? That's the part I find really strange.

Hmm must have misread it, I thought you said it was 22 years old or
something. In that case I dunno.

The original set had the hum bars, and we all thought the reason was
rather obvious, but then the OP mentioned that he had also gone out
and bought a second NEW set, which then displayed the same symptoms.
That's when the problem got interesting.
