I have just got a Marshall MG15Cd amp. This is my 1st amp and no very little
about them. When i turn the amp on and off there is a loud popping sound is
this normal or is there someting wrong. The amp does this whether something
is plugged in or not and the volume controls are all turned to 0

Its nothing to worry about. The power stage of modern amps switch
on very fast when powered up or shut down and this can lead to a
loud popping in the loudspeaker. Better amps have a soft-start
capacitor fitted to stop this but economy amps frequently dont
bother as it generally doesnt cause any damage due to their low power
(if its a big powerful amp, it can damage the speaker so its more
desireable.)
