New Sugar Cube is picking up hum from phono stage


Phono stage is the source of the hum.  It is in my new system and the phono stage is a PS Audio Stellar.  The ground wire is secure between the TT and phono stage and there is no hum if the Sugar Cube is powered off.  It is a low level 60 cycle hum.  The new Sugar Cube is model SC-1 Plus.  I have tried moving the two units apart, up one shelf, but that made little difference compared to stacking them.  I would like to add a shield between the two components and stack them.  Has anyone had a similar experience, or can offer advice or reference guidance?

What cleeds said, plus have you tried disconnecting the ground wire between components? And obviously check the cartridge grounds. Both channels?
