issues with ground loop from DAC?


I have a ground loop noise occuring when I connect my Benchmark DAC 1___but it only happens with my tube amp--Rogue audio stereo 90 in play--does not happen with my
back up solid state amp in use. Seems like tube amp not compatible with dac---anyone else experience this??

I don't think your problem is because the Rogue is a tube amp (Unless, as Tsugury suggests, you actually have a bad tube). One thing you may want to try, even if it is only temporary, is one of those "cheater" plugs that bypasses the ground pin to see if that may help. Most likely, getting a line conditioner that isolates the components, will fix the issue.
