BUT....
i plugged it in and get this hissssing sound. it comes and goes with the volume knob but it's pretty bad at any worthwile volume. i tried wiggling the tubes(thats about the extent of my electronic prowess) no good. looks like i'll have to send it back. UNLESS...
anybody know any tricks an electronic imbecile like myself could try?

Did you get the head or the combo? The very first versions of the combo have a bad hissing issue that can be solved, but not quickly. If you have a combo just do a google search to see what is necessary. But if you have the option to send it back, I'd do that.
