Line Magnetic owners...how quiet are they?

I'm particularly interested in the gold series (518). I'm referring to noise coming from the amp itself.

Not had one yet with any hum issues. FYI-- The 518 has hum balance adjusters on it, so if you do pick up any hum, you can try and adjust it out. The whole LM line is really pretty awesome, with the 211, 518 and the all new 508 being the most popular units for me.
