I am finding hard to trace the source of a hum on one speaker its just on the low frequency channel on one speaker. I have two Nap 250’s with a cross over. Were to start looking.
What is the complete system?
32-5 preamp, naim snaxo 2-4, 2 hi caps, 2 Nap 250 power amps snell JII speakers
OK, first make sure your NAXO is not picking up transformer hum from a nearby power supply or power amp. Then swap over the power amps. Is the hum still on the same speaker? Then do the same with the DIN-XLR leads.
Let us know how you get on?

I tried it with my 140 power amps and no hum so what is the problem with the 250?
If it’s a NAP250-2 or NAP250DR, then it’s possible that a power supply reservoir capacitor is starting to break down. It would be wise to get the affected 250 to a NAIM authorised repairer, to be diagnosed / repaired & serviced as soon as possible. If a power supply reservoir capacitor actually fails it can be disastrous for the connected speaker(s).
Its the old chrome bumper 250 with new capacitors fitted
