My WA2 have developed a humming sound recently. I know I am supposed to have a little hum from tubes as the volume gets pretty high, but this hum was irrelevant to the volume. I thought one of my tungsol 5998 was dead as I was able to hear the hum swithing from right to left while swapping them. (regardless of volume, without music) I did not hear any hum when switched tungsol tubes to other equivalent tubes. (RCA 6as7g)
Anyway, in my case, I gave some time for tubes warm up. (much longer than usual) and the hum suddenly disappeared. It was really strange.
I found out the hum went away after ordering a new pair of tungsol.... !!!!!
I would suggest try some more time with it. It may just go away magically like mine did. good luck!
