Sick and tired of hum-please read


JBL 4345's
Canary 500 monoblocks using emission lab 300B tubes
PS Audio MK ll Dac
Dish Network VIP 612 DVR
Dedicated 120 line from panel

You name it, I've tried it. I have a low level 60hz hum that I for some crazy reason am unable to get rid of.

Lifting the ground, power re-generators, cable changes, equipment to equipment grounding, Satellite new cable and grounding and turning off the whole house except my music room has not resolved. The only explanation I can conclude is that 300B tube amps and very high efficiency speakers will always produce hum. Drives me crazy. This subject has been beaten to death but if any of you guys has any out of the box ideas other than the obvious, I would be interested to hear. Thank you in advance

Try completely removing the DVR and substitute a CD player or transport.

I had a hum from the cable before, that might be your culprit.

Sounds like you have tried most things. Might there be any non audio electrical items in room such as Fluorescent lighting. And outside of repositioning your gear, which you may have done already, play it louder. Alas...the price of a system you love.
