Here is a Studer power supply.
There is a background whistle on all console buses, tuned to 6.8 kHz.
I have tested with the laboratory PSU and the sound is clean.
The problem seems to come from the PSU, but I do not find the oscillation.
I have replaced all the condesadores, the two integrated circuits and checked the rest of the components.
Any suggestions?

I just checked, with the original power supply , in addition to tone also a lot of background noise.
I have also checked with this:

With the Chinese psu, the sound is clean

Any suggestions?

Yes, get rid of the Studer supply and use the one from China    Seriously though, the last 169 I worked on it was easier and less expensive to replace the PSU.

PSU replaced by another? What brand and model?

How did you test it, under the load or without?
Do you have a scope?
BTW, where did you bought the Chinese PSU?

Everything has been solved. I have redone the power source. Two 7815 have been my salvation. The perfect voltage, there is no oscillation and the background noise has been reduced considerably.

Any reason to use this rare Studer psu for a 169 console or just get new one?
