Hi Jleaman, thank's for your answer.
here the schematic of my poweramp.

description of wiring gnd:
1- input rca gnd is on resistor input to gnd
2- all gnd of tube circuit is on my transfo CT
3- low voltage gnd is on transfo CT and there is a aluminium jumper which connect each channel and ground tube circuit.

thank you!!!:xeye:

Let me begin by stating I'm a solid state 'idjit', but if someone handed me that circuit to diagnose the first thing I'd do is remove the tubes and clip a couple thousand ohms across the interstage switch to see if the hum disappears or changes. The output stage gates don't appear to have any reference to ground.
