There is no only a very slight hum when ear is next to the speakers which is usual with Valve amps when using a normal line, however when using the Phono (MM) input on the Gate pre amp, the hum gets louder as I increase volume (no source playing of course) & also noticed the speakers flapping again???
Beyond bemused!!!
