Overly sensitive tweeter/midrange


I have Sonus Faber Amati Traditions. They sound great on 85% of music. The other 15%, I swear I hear some type of ugly noise in the transients. Of course, I can't explain it better than that, and my wife can't hear it at all. It sounds like a pop or a click you might expect from a broken driver, but much more subtle. I've tried to determine if it's one speaker or both. I can really only hear it on one speaker, but who knows. Is this something anyone else has dealt with that might remotely know what I'm talking about? I don't think it's just the recordings.

Isolate the noise to a certain track and elapsed time that can be repeatable, then begin to troubleshoot.

volume level?

source depedant?

tubes in system? 

one or both speakers? 

Intermittent subtle gaffs like that are annoying but can be tracked down and eliminated
