Loud buzz and hum in my REL subwoofer


Hello,
I recently purchased from this site a REL subwoofer. It work really nice for a few month but lately discovered that it was producing a lound buzz and hum, even when the Receiver is turned off. The only way to stop the buzz and hum is to disconnect the cable from the back of the sub.
has anyone experienced the same problem before? Could it be a cable problem rather than a sub problem ?
Thanks for your help.

Your amp is probably going out unfortunately... I had a Storm do the same thing then driver went out and the cone assembly had to be replaced so I returned it to the dealer. They are not built very tough like JL Audio Fathoms are for example. Or you might just have a new ground loop issue. Try a a cheater plug or move the Rel to another outlet or move some lights that are plugged into near outlets for example to isolate it.
