What causes an amp, a new one at that (Randall RX30D) to have a background

how do I get rid of the hum/static? Or, at least reduce it. Thanks.

Oops, I write a novel about hum and I didn't see the word "static"
above. If you have static then it's most likely the amp, go in for
some warranty work. Its probably just a weak tube or loose solder
joint. Static cannot be induced easily into a quiescent running amp
with nothing plugged into it.
