RE: Tube rolling buzz with new 12AX7's

Again the buzz, not hum, is steady and both channels.

The tubes are good. they were tested before I got them.

Age and type - New TungSols with gold pins.

Right now I am using the RCA Blackplate in V1 and the Tungsols in V2 and V3 with no problems. However I did have to "wiggle" the RCA last night to get better contact.

I can retry the Tungsol in V1 and try "the wiggle" with the amp on. WOWWWWW do I hate doing that! But I tried all the Tungsols in that position several times and the buzz was the same. So a contact problem would change with all that motion????
