RA 180 hum problem

I use my RA 180 as a power amplifier and my RS 150b as preamp. Sometimes the RS 150 shuts down and when it does a very high hum noise apperes in the left channel. I had the same problem when using the phonostage with Nagaoka mp 500 cartridge, and then in right channel and all the time. Anyone know?

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

I have one question for you.

  1. If you swap left and right channels, does the hum noise that appears in the left channel come out in the right?

No it does not, i had the same problem when i usel phonostage in the amplifier but in the right channel so i bought a external riaa instead. This only occures when i use the amp as a poweramp. The dealer have try to find the problem but could not find any solution.
