RE: OOOkayyyyy...Why DOOOOO the 'hum-y' circuits seem to work better?

Because all the compromises you have to make, ( large value chokes, larger values of capacitance , poor executions, poor layout and wiring ) to get the supply filter to the Finals "quiet" destroys the speed and dynamic expression, inherent in the original music, and M.I.A. in the amp, if it is made to be "real quiet".

NOTE : When you HEAR this in a properly executed amp, it is FULLY understood. End of discussion.

Come to RMAF Oct 2-4 and you will be able to do so.

Front ends need to be quiet, 1 mVAC or less is peachy.
