My concern is trying to create the ground with the WA5 connected to the Vega. I already know the WA5 has nothing to do with the hum. But if I do what you suggest I am creating a three way connection with all units. Now this might be exciting in another context but is it wise in an electrical context?

I think that it should not be a problem. But I have not analyzed the circuitry in the three devices not taken any measurements. If it were me in your situation, I would try it. There should be no reason for the ground potentials to be so different that it would hurt anything. Of course there may be exceptions without a complete analysis... as I said, just going by my experience of 40 or so years with audio gear... I would try it. Of course, if you want absolute guarantees , there are none. Still, in my estimation you should be just fine with testing using the wire that I mentioned...
