Disconnect the output from the HF85. Is the hum still there? If so, it's the amp, not the preamp.

Now disconnect the input to the HF85. Is the hum still there? If so, then it may be power supply hum or something else internal to the HF85. If not, it's the source. Check your ground, cables and source equipment.

Grounding problems are very common, so make sure your ground is good.
