Guys, I found out that the hum with the preamp shut off was due to the way the wires from the power switch to the trannie were routed. Once I moved them the preamp was dead quiet when turned off. But with the preamp turned on there is still the same level hum from both channels. Also this hum...

"Maybe you should try to contact the manufacturer, and get their take on the problem." I have and am still awaiting their response.

Brett, I do get hum without any source components connected to the preamp. The preamp and the amp connected by themselves hum, even with the pre turned off (but only in one channel). The only time there is no hum is if the power cord going to the preamp is disconnected. Last night I carefully...

Well to tell you the truth I only dropped $200 on the unit and for the sound I think it was worth it. The reason I am willing to tinker with it is because the most I lose is $200+ some additional components. And if nothing works out I can always sell it (provided I dont break it) for maybe a...

woww you guys are so far ahead in this game. I am also thinking of replacing the multicaps to Auricaps and see if I notice a difference. I also plan on upgrading all the wiring to silver wiring. Do you think these things would make an audible difference. I am willing to try this on this preamp...

Good suggestions all. The hum is loud enough to be heard 3 ft from the speakers during daytime and from 6ft away during night time. The hum is there in both speakers when powered on and only on the left speaker when powered off. No hum with the cord off. I'll look up the schematics tonight. Also...

But then why is it only on one channel? Please pardon my ignorance and be patient with me as I am learing something everyday.

Its been over a month I have been living with an ASL 2004DT tube linestage in my system. Its connected right before the SS amp. The sound is wonderful and dimensional but I still have this nagging hum issue. There is hum from both speakers when the tube pre is on. This hum is independent of...
