That does sound like the problem other people were having with the first series of amps.
Didn't one person's get really hot and melt something internal? I'm just bringing that up, because you may want to unplug the sub when it's not in use, just to be on the safe side. The "helicopter sound" was plagued with the first initial run of amps. The new version seems to have fixed that issue as well.

Mine was the one that melted a bit. But it was during use, not when sitting idle.

********update********
I received the new sub! I've had it since monday but haven't taken it out of the box yet... I didn't have time and then I started to think it would be best to save it until I finish most of of my set up (carpet, acoustic panel, acoustic curtains... etc.).
I'll update when I've finally had a chance to try it out.

I think I would pull the sub out, try it to be sure the issue is not there and if not, rebox the sub till the set up is complete. This way if the issue or another from shipping is present you can have another sub on the way while finishing the remodel.
