Re: WARNING!! Dumb Question..What do microphonic tubes sound like?

I had a pair of 12AX7s in my preamp/phono stage go microphonic on me a year ago. You could actually hear the "turning" of the volume control or "clunk" of the selector through the speakers when either control was used!

A replacement of the offending tube remedied the situation.
