I just started using my Behringer Powerplay PRO-8 HA-8000 Headphone Amp that I bought forever ago. The thing is on all channels it has a hum/buzzing noise all the time. Is that normal, or what?

First off check you cables and make sure they are good ones, and as well make sure they are not running past any power supply or near the PC moniter or anything.

As well, you are you feeding it, directly from a mixer or from the Audio interface? You might have something set a bit high volume wise that might be passing on the humm.

I've got a Behringer 4700 headphone amp an it is pretty clean. Was it always buzzing? If not, make sure all your cables are terminated and remove un-needed ones. I have a spaghetti of wires behind my rack and I guess I accidently unplugged one on a chain I don't use very often. Anyways, this introduced buzzing.
Like noise2u was saying, it could be feeding the headphone amp with buzzing from a mixer depending on how you are feeding it (especially if you are monitoring a headphone out).
