Well the new tubes have been playing for 7 hours and one channel lower the hum considerably. I hope as time goes by the tubes will stop making noise.
I rolled tubes and I got hum
I just rolled the two 12AU7 tubes in my Bottlehead II pre with a pair of suppose NOS Telefunkens and right away I heard some noise (hum) coming out from the speakers. The hum can be heard at a distance of about one foot from the speakers, is not very loud and does not increases by turning up the volume. Any idea about what´s going on? With the others tubes (Electroharmonix) the speakers (i.e. the pre) was dead silent.
