Splattering Verdik Q10

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Dear Forum,
I own a pair of really nice Verdik Quality Tens (Mullard 5-10, 1959, London) One of them has a "rising" hum warm up period and it goes into a splattering phase. This may last for about a minute before settling to its normal loudspeaker clean hiss.
Both run perfectly after this and sound very fine indeed
Does anyone have any idea what causes this splattering sound.
Many Thanks
Howard

It is likely a resistor (nt) - Chris O 13:01:08 08/20/04 (0)
