Amp for new Meadowlark Krestel 2's ?

Beernut, I had a similar "problem." Turns out it is not the amp but crappy DC in my AC line. I ordered a PS Audio Humbuster unit from Music Direct and this quieted down my Jolida 302B to near silence. What a great unit!

Beernut, was previou amp hooked up in similar fashion as new Jolida? If so, was there any noticeable hum? It seems as though the amp's power supply filter should eliminate hum.

Good info guys. Jolida recommended re-biasing the tubes, didn't help. Seems to be tied into my electric circuits in my apt, my ceiling lights are controlled with a dimmer switch. Turn it down or off and the humm gets quieter but not gone. This did not occur with my solid state amps. Suggestions appreciated. Have to go to plan B, the humm is too noticeable to just ignore.

I've owned several amps that would hum in my system. When replaced the hum went away. The thing is, any well designed amplifier should incorporate a power supply which provides AC filtration to eliminate audible hum. If special AC filters are required to quiet down the amp then something is wrong with the amp IMHO. If you love the sound of the amp then do what it takes to get it right. Welcome to the world of tubes.

Maybe you can remove or replace the dimmer switch?
