Tube Whine noise...Please Help


Hi everyone.

As a newbe to tubes I am having a problem that I need some help on. I just received my Musical Design SP-2 preamp and while it sounds wonderful, occationally there is a high frequency whine/whistling noise coming from one or both speakers. The SP-2 uses 2 6922 that the previous owners said were NOS RCA types. I want to know if the tubes went bad and needs replacing or if there is another problem that I need to look for. Thanks

My expirience with the Emotive Audio Sira LE is same. I switch to the Tung Sol 5687 and got some microphonic noise, especially when touching the volume or the preamp. Well, I like the sound of the Tung Sol 5687 better so the "ring" thing doesn't matter to me. When the music plays, that's what's count.
