Process of elimination

Try another amp.

As for me, the 405 uses dated 70s era LM301 op amps that are not known for the smoothest response. Hence, the 405-2 appeared later which used better TL072s and fixed the current limiting stage.

In '76, Frank Van Alstine offered an upgrade to the Dyna PAT-5 which replaced the lowly LM301s with far better LF356s. It was much better sounding.
