"Buzz" from Preamp?

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

I posted this issue in the preamp forum & was required to cross-post it here. I recently started to get a "buzz" coming from my speakers. In the past, I resolved this symptom by replacing the tubes in my Audio Research SP-16 preamp. However, when I replaced the tubes the other day, the buzz persisted.

I unplugged all of the audio components (one by one). The buzz stopped only when the preamp or the power amp were unplugged.

Does anyone have any thoughts what might be the culprit? Thank you kindly.
