Please Help!!! tube amp experts.......crackle!!
Posted by Tarbaby on February 12, 2007 at 08:37:59:
I have a pair of Audio Valve Challenger 140 monoblocks (similar to current model 150), these amps are a little over 10 yrs old. They started to make crackle/statics noises at the beginning of each track, especially more on recordings that are harsh.
I took the amps to the repair shop 2 weeks ago, they cleaned up the inside and some of the crackle is gone. Some crackle still remains, I would love to get rid of all these unwelcomed noises. Please let me know what I can do? I have retubed both amps. I will be taking it back to the repair shop in a couple of days, what should they check?
Anyone have this problem before?Thanks in advanced.
