McIntosh MA5200 hum

There is a checklist of procedures to diagnose this problem. Goto the archives and type in "hum".

I've now checked out everything that audiogon offers to remedy this but still a hum from the amp (not through speakers).  Very dissapointed.  No choice but to return to dealer unless anyone has any other suggestions.

I will go back to listening to my YBA and never go near Macintosh again.

What a waste of time.

I bought a Prima Luna Prologue integrated which made hum I could hear 12 feet away thru my speakers. Sold at a $600 loss. Seems like your problem is only with your A/C. Either call an electrician and check out your power, call McIntosh for advise or bring it back.

Almost all transformers hum a very little.  Many are pretty much inaudible.  Some are not.  Broadly speaking, transformers in tube amps hum more than in SS (there are exceptions).  Most guides will tell you that amp transformer hum is one thing, and hum through speakers another.  No guides tell you how to eliminate hum when there's some hum in both (as other users here on 'gon have individually reported).  If you're lucky, one of the standard remedies will work.  Otherwise, just return it.  It may be unfortunate synergy between your AC and the component, or the transformer in your unit may have been manufactured on a Friday afternoon.  After exploring this quite extensively, I don't believe that there's a power conditioner/regenerator/isolation transformer out there that will predictably remove all hum from all transformers.  Sometimes they will work, sometimes not.  The fact that there's no hum at the dealer's definitely suggests your AC, but if you've worked through the checklist, save yourself the hair-tearing and return it.  BTW, Ayre amps are particularly quiet.

It’s silly to conclude that one must stay away from McIntosh because of the problem you are experiencing. If you like the amp, keep it. Send it off to McIntosh with a note of your issue. They will most likely repair it for free and bill you only for the shipping. This has been my experience as a long term McIntosh owner of many amps and preamps. 
I find their service and build quality second to no one.
