Troubleshooting static on system


Recommended Posts

Got some static on the right RF-7 tweeter, in addition to the tube hiss that is usually present there and on the left.

Here' what I have done so far:

Switched the power tubes between amps > static remains.

Replaced with a new 12AX7 on offending channel > static remains.

Switched RCA cables outputs at preamp > static moved to opposite channel.

Switched RCA cable outputs to Main Out 2 (in same L/R config)> Static remains on opposite channel.

STATIC IS PRESENT WITH PREAMP IN ALL MODES: CD/TUNER/PHONO ETC.

It seems like the preamp is to blame, but I don't know this stuff well enough. Is there one tube (1 of the 3 6922s) that would be in use for all the modes?

thanks

DC
