    Shape--
    Many years ago, Steve Young recommended this method of sharply striking the flat top of the transformer with a hammer or wooded mallet in order to realign the internal plates. This actually worked for me (and others). A couple of moderately sharp blows with a ball-pean hammer eliminated all the loud humming. Been fine ever since. YMMV.
