I have some old speakers in the house that I wanted to test. So instead of messing with the real stereo unit from the 80s, I bought a $30 stereo from Amazon, and new speaker wire.

The speakers sound okay, but there's a hum coming from them all the time. Even with the stereo volume knob turned all the way down. Is this normal for stereo systems and I just haven't noticed?

Someone should make an Amazon for used gear, with the same fast shipping and return policy. BC you are right and the new stuff is often such low quality.

That's eBay, isn't it?
