Uneven balance


I am experiencing uneven balance between the speakers. After switching speakers, the left channel continues to produce more volume that the right. The pre amp and amp are tubed with new tubes all around. The preamp recently serviced and the factory gave the pre a clean bill of health. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'd suggest following Davt's lead and look at your room configuration. Asymmetry can be a problem, especially with speakers that have a wide dispersion in rooms where the primary reflection points are different from the left side to the right. That can really skew the stereo image.

If that's the source of your problem it can often be improved by experimenting with speaker placement in the room and acoustic treatments.
