Heh, are you serious?? It seems that MD is pretty sensitive machine. 
I live in building with several other people on their flats (don't 
remember english word right now). It's mad, everytime somebody 
swithes light on or off in the other flats I get small pop from MD!! 
It use to be really trouble, because I had to think average 
timetables of when people don't touch their lights and when I was 
recording something to computer!! It got a lot better when I switched 
my MD to grounded electricity (spelled wrong somehow, I know..). It 
also good to try to get electricity to every audio equipment from the 
same point, this way you don't get groundlinks (50 or 60 Hz buzz).

I don't think it's MD, it more to do with your available electricity 
and how it have been designed in the first place (my building was 
designed somewhere 1930s).
