Normally one would look first at the changes that usually caused the issue. The tubes were OK and haven’t been changed.
However, I think I pointed out in post #4830 quite some points where things can be made as they should be. It seems the changes uncovered some existing imperfections. It is hard(er) to solve issues with introduction of new variables. First basic rules and troubleshooting.
No offence but it would be a miracle if the device was dead silent. Dead silent = as in the semi world so ears before the woofer and no hum.

Miracles happen apparently. Because as you can read in earlier posts he says it was dead silent. So if you pull out tubes and insert them...that might take em over a threshhold. But that is just guessing....ofcourse. I had tungsol 6v6...after a while of use...white flakes were loose inside the tube....pulling them out and laying them flat may have caused something...Anyway... All is well that ends well. I'm sure he'll get it dead silent again.

As thought. You will have to some work. Boutique parts won’t solve matters (at all). Replacing parts is the last thing you should do right now.
