Dave,
you did not mention what brand of tape deck you have. Keep in mind some manufacturers used pin 3 as the hot and not pin 2. If you are connecting pin 2 to the hot center pin on the RCA, you could be sending an out of phase signal to your tube pre amp. That may also explain why you are getting the ground hum.
best of luck
