I've recenly noticed an annoying hum (probably 60 Hz) from my RMDS-1 at all times except if the power is turned off at the sub.

I have made sure that all componets connected to the system share the the same power and phase.

Any ideas?

    Sounds like a ground loop problem with the sub amp.

    I had the same problem. I solved it by simply plugging the power cord into a 2-prong cheater-plug (without the 3rd grounding prong).
