Hello, I´m Michal from Czech Republic , hello here 
I own VH4 , bought 2006 before christmas in Schmidt musicstore in Frankfurt am Main...
... I love it, superb amp...
... but I think it have a hum or buzz problem... I can´t remember how noisy was this hum, when I bought it, but I think that lower ( in normal) or no one, cause as far as two last months this hum starts beeing annoying (bothering) to me...
The hum can be heared on firs clean channel, and I think it´s just not normal for the clean channel to... it´s too noisy to me..
the second channel.. here is the hum lower than on the first channel, what suprises me, cause I thought, that it should bee noisy than on the first, because of bigger gain .. this hum is lowest on the amp.. and only on this channel I think, it´s in normal...
but on the third channel its much bigger, than on the first and on second, and on the fourth, it´s the biggist... on these third and fourth channels, it´s too much annoying (bothering) and to me the hum is to loud...
...when the mute is on.. no hum is there
I own the vintage amp Orange OR120 2x12 combo version...a had a few problems with it, so I took it to one of our amp manufactures here in Prague to have look at it to check it, and I asked on my problem with my VH4 too.. He told me, to take it with to him, when I will come back for my Orange, that he will hear to that hum, so I did it today... He said, that he think that hum is too big too and that it shouldn´t bee so noisy in his opinion... At first he only thought, that it could do some of the pramp tubes, so he checked only them ( he tryed to pull out some of them when the amp was on, whether the hum will be gone, only the one everytime, but it didn´t ,the hum stayed there everytime he pulled out one of the preamp tubes. By the way, when he did it, I stayed stareing and looking with mouth open, cause I don´t know about electrotech things with amps, but this dooing by him with premp tubes scared me. It looks such to brutal to me to do it this way to my loved VH , but maybe he knew what to do, so I leaved him to do...) ... so he thought that they are all right and he told me, that it´s maybe something inside the amp, and to check it, he needs to leave my VH there and he wil look inside of it... so I told him, that I will come back if it will be urgent for me, cause.. the amp plays all right.. but only that hum is there , and I don´t want to open it and check it by someone who don´t know this amp as well until it will be urgent... it´s not the cheapest amp and I love it so much ... so I´m afraid of it 
Can anyone please help me and advise me what to do? thanks a lot I´m little scared
