Trouble with Akai GX-630DB

My Akai reel to reel recorder has in the left channel same kind of noise as tube amp has when tube gets microphonic. I can´t describe it exactly (bad english) but it occurs when I record silence (tape is running). When the tape is not running I hear nothing. Right channel is OK. Level adjustment doesn´t affect on it. It is somekind of ground mumbling. Is there a transistor close to end in recording amp. I would be grateful if somebody knows answer to my problem.
