tube DAC noise


....recently tried the Black Ice DAC.  Really enjoyed the sound only the tube noise was noticeable on quiet passages.  Do all tube dacs have this ?

My jolida fx dac had hum issues no matter what interconnects I used. It was someplace in the rca jacks...checked them and they looked ok...I promptly sold it. Waiting for my border patrol to arrive.
