    Annoying Hum From My Sub :(

    A grounded plug? sorry little confused..is it a extension plug with 3-prongs? if so I tried that..didnt work. I also tried plugging it into different outlets. thanks BTW- The hum only happens when i hook up the sub-out from my receiver to the sub..not when nothings hooked up.
