Maybe you should get some rest and look at it when you aren't so tired, maybe try typing when you aren't so tired either.

Sounds like you have a cheap or defective amplifier that is getting a ground connection through the case. Either it's broken, or you will end up with ground loop issues that you can never solve. What's the amp and is it new or a FleaBay special?
