New purchase BAT VK-60...new buzz

Greetings all,

I just purchased a previously owner BAT VK-60 and am in love already. However, I do have a serious buzz/humm coming from the amp and through the speakers...mainly the midrange. I changed out power cord to a Harmonic Tech and went from a power conditioner into the wall outlet. Less buzz, but still present. I am running high end cables to a single-ended Adcom preamp and my speakers are Genesis.

Thanks for the input.

Suggest you switch to or at least try a truly balanced preamp. Without this you are not getting the best out of the amp. You could even go with the Adcom 750 which has balanced connectors, but better would be a BAT 3i or 5i .
Just a thought.
