This file of hum samples might help diagnose the problem:

The first is 60hz. It is lower pitched and generally associated with inadequate shielding or heater-cathode leakage in a tube. In an amp, this can be before or after the volume control
The second is 120Hz. This represents either inadequate filtering of the DC supply, or an excessive load on it that exceeds the filtering capacity.

Hello all, I recently rebuilt my AMI G-80 amplifier. I replaced all the capacitors
and
Ive noticed that I am getting a little humming from my speaker and a
little
squelchy noise from time to time when my records play. Does anyone have
any
thoughts?
Does the volume control affect the volume of the hum?
