Hum in Cary cad 805 AE

Raf,
Why don't you contact the manufacturer with your question and see what they suggest?

I'm not familiar with this particular amp but if it has an IEC connector, try a different power cord and see if the buzzing subsides. When I was looking for power cords, there were a couple that caused my amp's transformer to make a very slight but audible buzz. Not sure why but they did. How old is they amp?

Thanks for contributions!

The amps have 10 years old and iec connectors.I use them with shunyata venom powercords in both monoblocks.I haven’t tried another brand power cord yet.But what calls my attention is that even by exchanging power cords( left to right and viceversa) the noise persists in the left monoblock.So my conclusion is that its a problem of the amplifier itself more than a suitable powercord.Anyway is only audible when pause is on.As I refer before, I put it off the base to see inside if there were something untight, but all seemed to be tight firmly.I guess that, may be, the vibration could come from the output transformer, but I has a covering with 6 lateral screews and I’m afraid that in taking this covering appart, the parafine or rosine that covers the transformer could result damaged o broken,This is actually my fear.But I guess all the problem is there, some screws that are not visible from the bottom of the amplifier but that will be probably visible under this covering.
Anyone has seen this amp without this covering??
By the way I sent an email to Cary audio but haven’t had any answer yet.

Any info will be of great help!

Sincerely

Raf

Hi Dear fellows.

Finally I decided not to touch anything in the left monoblock.Indeed is a very subtle buzzing in the transformer.I can leave with that, toghether they sound marvellous and I understand that some things must be forgiven in the tube  amplification's world.
Thanks anyway for your opinions!

Cheers!

Hi Dear fellows!

I finally brought the two monoblocks channels to a highly reputated technician.The problem was an interstage transformer  , a small one inside the chassis that feed the 211 tube.It was replaced in both channels toghether with bypass capacitors.After that repair the sound is marvellous.No hum at all.

Cheers!
Raf
