I use the marantz for the built in connectivity and wireless. So I’m not thinking this is a regular ground loop as I can get clean sound skipping the pre out.
Please clarify what you meant by built in connectivity and wireless. Did you mean using its built in power amps for some channels, while also use pre outs for other channels such as the LCR channels?
Does anyone have a Suggestion how I could further troubleshoot or remedy this easily? Other than a catchall troubleshooting step, is there a reason to think a reset may help? (Im pretty sure I tried this months ago).
I’d rather not have to send in for service but maybe that’s the answer? Maybe this is a common eventuality?
It is worth trying but I don't think it will fix the hum issue.
If the hum only comes from the woofers, is it the same from all channels that have the same Montis woofer?
If it does then either there is, as others commented, you likely have a ground loop between the Marantz pre out and the Montis woofers, or if they all hum then may be your power line is having too much "d.c. offset".
If it is due to d.c. offset, the hum noise would be from the woofer's power supply transformer but not the woofer speaker cone itself and in that case the hum will still be there even if you disconnect the input signal to the woofer.
It is hard to imagine you would suddenly have a ground loop though.
There are quick fix for both ground loop and d.c. induced hum but you need to first find out which one it is.
I don't believe the SR5010 is the source of the problem though it is possible
