That's what I'd be looking for. Monitor the cuurent draw, does it
follow the buzz level? The buzz is a symptom of the PSU running out
of steam, do the driver chips/transistors get warm/hot?

As it takes a while to appear and does so slowly I'd guess that it's
only just unstable and requires a signal to kick it off.

as I said - check the power supply.

bad decoupling cap feeding high impedance source that picks up hum from
the body once the cap has stopped being a cap.


Did you actually read my post? The buzz stops as you approach the device.
But perhaps your body is out of phase. ;-)


Now thats is odd., Assuming it used the THAT and SMM series of balanced
line receivers they should only see the input differential voltage
unless that differential system isn't working i.e. the common mode side
is up ****e creek.

Electronic balance is fine but it must be isolated from its supply limes
and other odd references around.

Maybe one input side is getting connected to the metal earthwork?.

Bring it up here Dave got the equipment to suss that one out;!.
