RE: Tung-Sol EL34B noise in PrimaLuna Dialogue HP Integrated

Posted by aperfectcircle on May 2, 2017 at 02:25:40:
Thanks both.

Gave the pins and sockets a good working over with Deoxit, to no avail. Listening closer its more of a mechanical buzzing noise, which from a distance sounds like a hiss.

That said, the cleaning definitely had an effect on the sound, in a good way! So well worth it even if it hasn't solved the Tung-Sol buzz.

Might just have to use this as an excuse to check out some Gold Lion KT88s.
