Swapped the tubes. The very slight hum stayed on the right channel.
I replaced the rectifier tubes with 5AR4's [had previously 5U4's] and readjusted the bias to 80 mA. No change. I did install in parallel a REL Acoustic sub-woofer system as per wiring instructions over ONE year ago with no problems. I wonder if there might be a grounding issue somewhere. Very frustrating. I am totally baffled.
