Amp Noise

Afternoon all,

Recently got a new Marshall amp. I'm a behinner and this is the first amp I've had. I've noticed it's making quite a noticeable swirling sound. I wondered if that's normal? It get louder the higher I turn up the volume. I've tried a couple of guitars and it's the same.

Thanks!

Which model is it?

Have you got the gain cranked up or do you get the sound at all levels?

Could it be a power supply issue?

Do you live in a flat or communal block? Have you tried it at a friends house? It could be a ground loop issue, some info here but heavy reading I'm afraid.

I have read about using isolating transformers to cure it. Have you spoken to the store you bought it from?
