Yes, the layout kind of not optimum. You might try to lay the transformers sidewise and to make the RCA atop, above the transformers. Still, I hope you understand that your hum has very little to do with layout. Properly grounded unit shell has no noise in open incisures. You need to play with grounds.  I usually use by-pass ground techniques – never failed on me. One you find a proper grounding then whatever you will do with the corrector will produce no noise. BTW, I did ask anybody to mane the uploaded images identifiable, so please….


Yes, I understand all your points. I don't think I have any ground loops though--I tried your ground bypass technique and it didn't change anything so far. Apologies for the pic--I've uploaded it automatically and then realized that it was not named (in your gallery it's impossible to rename the file).
