Jim Muller suggested "...spending $75 or so on a powerline filter
intended for Apples, TRS80's, PC's or whatever?"

I have been having the 60Mhz-hum problem with my  amp  and  tried
using  my   power-filter   (made  by  Electronic  Specialists) to
correct the problem without success.

I am not an EE, but it would seem likely to me that the  sort  of
interference the power  lines  give off  has  a  different effect
on computer equipment than  on  audio  equipment.  Hence,  power-
filters  designed  to  correct  power  related computer  problems
(voltage spikes and brown-outs) will  not   be  as  effective  in
reducing audio related problems.
