"Unfortunately, no. The diodes ARE "one way streets" for electricity. However, hum goes both ways, and even though one way might be blocked by the diodes, the other way gets through with the diodes. The diodes can't allow DC through and not allow at least part of the AC hum through."

I'll go looking for the multiple transformers and run them in parallel...that way I can always add as many power supplies as I need.  
 
Thank's
