Yes, I would suspect this in most installations. I guess my concern is for the rare and unusual. A floating speaker might be able to pick up common mode interference. Perhaps if you had wooden floor with live conduits flowing under it. Just thinking aloud. Or maybe something really odd, like the speaker cable acting as a long common mode AM antenna, reflecting the received signal back into the primary side of tranny where perhaps it sees some HF nonlinearity and demodulates, putting some radio signal onto the tubes. I don't know, maybe I am reaching here. Maybe something funny happens in only 1 out of 10 systems. Perhaps you have to be near an AM station pumping out 590kHz. Or have a home theatre installation with a CRT.
