@jriggy I had the same issue when introducing one of my valve FM tuners to my system. A different tuner works perfectly.
I trialled the 156 and it didn't work in my system, altering piano sound too greatly. I have since enjoyed a UK built "AC-2K Balanced Mains Supply". This reduces noice floor and enhances clarity and impact in my system while not emasculating natural sound of piano or other instruments. Good luck.
