Please help with phono hum

I've been in audio for more than 7 years now and had many different systems (all tubes). Finally, around couple months ago, I decide to try phono.
After reading many post here about how wonderful phono sound, I was so exciting and thought that I will experience something amazing. But the only thing I experience with phono is bad sound, hum and noise through the whole system.
Let me start with the system. I have a Muse 8/926 DAC -> Emotive Audio Sira LE (just upgraded all new tubes) -> Art Audio Jota -> SAP J2001 speakers (horn). Last month, I bought a Sota Saphire turntable with a Grado cardrige, connected it through a Musical Surroundings Phonomena and to my Emotive. I got major hum from the speakers and the music was terrible. I then heard about the Grado noise, so I got rid of the turntable and get a VPI with a Benz cardrige. Same thing happen, LOUD HUM even when the motor is not on.
Again, I traded in all the equipments and this time, I got the Clearaudio CHAMPION LEVEL II w/unify arm, clear audio balance pre-amp, Transfiguration Spirit from a dealer. The package arrive today and after hours and hours setting them up, here come the LOUD HUM in my system once again.
I've been trying to switch cable, lift the ground (also, prior to this, I got my dedicate power line installed), hook them up to the Hydra Conditioner... still HUM and HUM.
After 2 months with turntable and 3 different equipments, I'm really wonder if this turn table thing is real or just an imagination?
