Home Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Your first inclination was correct.

You most likely have a weaker tube in the MPX that corrects itself as it stays on..Do this..When you put it in mono,do you still get the warble on startup? If so,we can safely assume it's in the mpx and the 6BL8 and the 12AT7 in the rear are the most common failures on those.Your alignment may be slightly off if you have to change tubes but not always.
