Hello Steve,
I owned Plinius SA-102 and I am familiar with its hum. I will confirm Stereophile writer's observation that when I installed "cheaper" and "cheaper" (thinner and thinner) power cords the hum went down.
I wonder how SA-250 handles your Apogees Scintilla and is it better (for you, of course) musically then Spectron amp you owned?
Incidently, they developed new high current power cord (about $500) but I did not have a chance to try it
Good Luck
Rafael
