I'm new to all these powerheads and I just picked up a Jebao pp-20 for my 135 gallon tank. It seems to be pretty loud. Is that how they typically are even at 30-40% flow?

Really quiet? Or there should be some humming. Which would make sense since it's pretty strong. Just trying to determine if mine is defective. Thanks for the help!!

Humming is normal . Sorry this took so long
 
Mine is only a PP-4 so may be vastly different but it is silent, sometimes I think it may be broken because I cannot hear it at all. Just another view.
