Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on what may be the problem or suggest any fixes? The hum/vibration happens intermittently and seems to be coming from the power transformer at the front of the receiver.

Thanks!

I doubt this would work. It sounds more serious that this, but the last time I had a hum in my sound system, a power cleaning Surge Bar solved my problem. I live in an old house, and the corruption on my power supply was introducing all kinds of interference into my set-up. Clean Power solved my issue.

With your problem though, Is the sound coming from the receiver itself? Could it be a cooling fan? If it has a cooling fan, and its gotten dirty, then that could be the intermittent sound you hear.

Just spit-balling here. Any more info?
