Let me take a simple shot at this one...If the audio on the DCT2000 itself is turned down using the DCT remote and the audio of the surround system or TV is turned up to compensate for the low DCT output it will cause the hum you are talking about
Turn the DCT audio all the way up and then adjust the audios out of the suerround system or the TV down ..Balance out all your Audios.. on all the equipment

I have low-end Monster Video cable running throughout the system and all components are plugged into a surge supressor that is connected to the same circuit.
