Now that am doing more listening, I realized a small hum starting around 10 and increasing with the volume but nothing that can really affect the music listening experience.
this hum could also be heard on my 2 other headphones amp while the DV is only ON. Am using a Rolls Switch box with input from the DAC and a switched output to either 3 amps.
Hum disappears from the other 2 amps if I either switch Off the DV or unplug its RCA input from the switch box.
Removing both tubes eliminates the hum, re-installing the 6AS7G tube introduce no hum, only when the 6SN7 is plugged again the hum returns.
Having no ground in place works same as a cheater plug though.
