I guess it's better to move this thread to the Musical Instruments page...

Have you asked over www.firebottle.com/ampage? there are so many people who work with musical instruments- oriented tube stuff... here you'll find only hi-fi geeks!!! 😉

But like any other new/no p2p product, I suggest you take a look to the solder joints, input jacks, tubes (their age, their state and their bias...), burned resistors etc etc...

Thanks for your fast answers!

I've figured that the circuit is a standard EL84 push pull with 12AX7 driver, and there are 2 problems:

A - The left channel is working, but the volume is very low.
B - The right channel sounds normal, but it makes white noise (even with the volume turned down).

I have tried the following:

1 - Change all valves for new ones: no difference here
2 - Check the voltages in all the pins of the valves: they are very simmilar in both channels.
3 - Remove the 12AX7 valves: the noise is still there!. So problem B is not coming from the driver stage; it is some component of the output stage that is noisy (and it's not the valve) any clue here?

Thank you very much
🙂
