You know come to think of this , I have the same issue in my ARC ref 1, I just bought 4 matched sets of EH 6922 Gold pin, and it seems like one or more has gone microphonic, with my ear up close to the speaker you could hear a hiss and a bit of a hum, the hum being the lesser. Also it's seems less in the right channel than the left. I will be honest, I do not have any dampers on the tubes.
How can I rectify which tube(s) it the culprit? The tubes have less than 10 Hrs on them.
thanks in advance guys.
