sshv 2
Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Salas, it has helped me a lot.
Thanks also to your contribution poty.
I've located where the noise is coming from, sometimes focusing on internal problems and not looking at something around that might interfere.
The noise comes from the transformers of the preamplifier, although it is at a distance of 30cn below where the phono stage is installed. It captures the electromagnetic waves of this, I will install 0.5 mm thick mu-metal plates under the chassis of the phono stege if as in the top cover, I think that this would work out, I do not know another system to remedy this problem

You may put flux bands to the transformers themselves also

Flux bands in the transformed? I have never heard of that remedy, could you explain how to install these flux bars ?.
Thanks again.

Simplest install is for a toroid. You dress a metal hoop around it like those on a barrel. Steel, copper, but mu-metal is the best. Thin works better.
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
For EI type it is more shaped work:
Effective toroidal transformer shielding
Commercial example of EI with copper band:
Vox AC15 Vintage Style Power Transformer, 100/120/220/230/240V

Will it create a noisy groundloop if I have a common PSU supply for - let say - an input tube and a driver tube and use two SSHV's to regulate the B+ to each tube, and attach the negatives from the respective SSHV's to the local star grounds of each individual tube, and then from those ground nodes to chassis ground?
Or is it better to take the negatives from each SSHV to the common chassis ground point, and then make separate ground connections from there and to the local star grounds of each respective tube?
My head is spinning at the moment but the more I think about it the more I think that the last option is better. Any comments?

Burned R1 usually tells there is at least a burned Q1 too. What were the conditions? Info is needed to evaluate causes. In post #1 there is also a link on how to safely troubleshoot and repair the reg itself.
