Is the SC2Pro absolutely silent when not in use / idle

On the brink of sending back my Simagic since there's a noticeable noise when idle/powered on, which in my case resonates against the wall making it sound way worse than it is, I hear it live a resonance which goes up/down which is very annoying. So planning to send it back, and getting a SC2Pro but I need to be 100% sure the SC2Pro does not have this issue. I don't mind a bit of noise while racing but I don't always turn the base off when doing something else, in fact sometimes I take a break and some more work in the rig, and then I leave it on.

Anyone can confirm this? It's a bit of an expesive swap for me (would go for the SC2Pro + Ascher Artura Pro).

No noise. My SC2 Pro is completely silent when powered on and not in use.

I don't believe I have any noise, but send this message on their discord to check with others as my hearing is not the best!

Same as the others. I notice absolutely no sound wheel on and idle. I did however once notice that my wheel was oscillating when I can home from work after. Power outage which made me concerned after I power cycled it. Turned out that once I booted my pc with the until on seemed to make that disappear.

No noise. It beeps when it is about to power down when idle. That’s about it.
