Does the 7150 have a two-prong cable? If it has a non- polarized plug, take a voltage reading from the chassis to the screw that holds the wall-outlet cover in place. Reverse the plug and take a reading again. The plug orientation with the lower voltage reading should be the quieter of the two.
2) The filter capacitors in these components power supplies are supposed to filter out 60 cycle hum after the line voltage has been rectified."Leaky" or worn out caps will not filter the ripple, leading to increased hum. In older equipment replacing the caps might be worth looking into.
