Need suggestions please! Electrical noise in my system and it's driving me crazy!


So I have been battling with an electrical noise in my home since I moved in over a year ago. I've had two electricians check it out and have done hours of trouble shooting myself. 

I'm getting a hum or a buzz from anything with a transformer and a buzz through my speakers. Standard driver speakers and my Maggies. The house was built ten years ago and has everything up to code. Underground electrical lines. 2 ground rods outside the house. Just added a ground to all the copper plumbing and gas lines. I have a 200 amp panel in the house and a 100 amp panel in the garage. 

I have a Furman IT Reference 15 power conditioner and it's not doing jack. It's actually humming too. As far as trouble shooting I've mixed and matched equipment, speaker, and cables to eliminate that factor, I've also turned every breaker off one by one to find if it's something in the house that's dirtying up the electrical but even when I only had the one breaker that powered me system on, the noise was still there. 

I'm going crazy because my relaxing time is sitting and listening to my music in a dead silent room with a dead silent background and I no longer have that anymore. I can hear the buz, hum, and even a high pitch noise and it's ruining my hobby. Both electricians I've had in the house have no clue and and think I'm nuts anyway. 

Has anyone had an issue like this before? Could you fix it? How did you fix it? Please help! I'm about ready to sell all my equipment because it's annoying to listen to. 

Thanks,
Brian

Two things to try:

1 - Turn off every other circuit in the home. You could have a dimmer somewhere that is putting DC on your line.

2 - Not sure about the exact Furman units you have, but try using the balanced outlets on the Reference model. Use power strips to extend them if necessary.
I've already turned all the circuits off in the house. I eve did it one by one to see if I could pinpoint the issue circuit. Only thing I gained by doing that is I made a diagram of which breaker is hooked up to what in the house. 

I'm not sure what you mean by number 2?
Well, if no house circuit helped, that sucks. One of your power conditioners has balanced outputs, right? I just don't know how many.

Are all the outlets balanced? If not, move everything over to the one's that are.

Listen again.

When it rained really hard the other night it was noticeably worse.
You said you have an under ground electrical service.
Pad mount utility power transformer? Yes?
If yes,
Front of house or back of house?
By chance have you ever noticed a ground fiber electrical junction box just inside the property line? Sometimes they are flush with the ground and sometimes, often, the cover and part of the box will be above the ground a few inches. Usually the box will be somewhat centered on the property line of two property lots. Some times it might be on your property or the neighbor’s next door property. If you have such a box good chance your electrical service wires are jointed/terminated inside the box. If the connections are not water proof, which they usually are not, and the Lineman that made up the terminations didn’t keep them high in the box just below the bottom of the cover, then the terminations could have been laying in ground water from the heavy rain. Water will seek its’ own level.

I do have internet coming in over Coax wire and then have CATV going into my OPPO 105D but I’ve unplugged it and plugged it back in with now change. I don’t have cable, just internet, so only the OPPO is hooked up.
Unplugged? Do you mean you physically disconnected the CATV Cable Providers Coax cable "F" connector from what ever it connects to?

What kind of neighbors do you have around you? Neighbors that are/maybe fed from the same utility power transformer as you. Any of them running a business say out of their garage? How close are you to any commercial business from your home.

Did you ever contact the utility power company and talk to them about your problem?
