Possible electric shocks from XDRS-60 DAB radio?

I recently bought a Sony XDRS-60 radio from Amazon. Everything's great, apart from one thing that's worrying me: if I rub my finger along the front metal grill while it's plugged in I feel a light buzzing/vibrating sensation on my fingertip. Also if I'm on a call on my landline and I touch the front grill or the aerial I hear a quiet hum/buzz sound on the phone.

 

These things do not happen if the unit is unplugged.They DO happen if the unit is plugged in but switched off.

 

I am concerned there is an electrical fault with this unit. I already sent one back to Amazon because of this but the same thing happens with my replacement.

 

Can someone explain what might be happening here?

Hi there

 

It sounds like some type of electrical issue.  Have you managed so resolve this or did you swap the radio again.

 

Cheers
