Amplifier hum - normal?


Is it normal for amps to emit a slight humming noise from the transformer when turned on?

I never noticed it in my old integrated that I lived with for over 10 years, but that was lower power. Now I've gone from 50wpc to 120wpc... don't know if that makes a difference here though.

I mean, it's not nearly enough to bother me or even really be audible past 3 feet away... but I am curious if this is typical for amplifiers to do this.

I have found that higher power amps tend to have a little hum to them. Some more then others. If you can only here it from 1-2 feet in a silent room, that it pretty normal.
I have a Yamaha M-40... did they use quality transformers?

It is pretty quiet... i would say you could barely hear it from 3 feet away from the chassis top in a silent room.
