We have a Pultec clone which started to make strange noises recently. Actually I know this sound from my Deluxe Reverb, where cleaning the sockets or changing tubes helped. But I just can't seem to find the source of this one here.
I already checked the voltages, changed the tubes, cleaned the tube sockets, changed the anode resistors, resoldered the solder points, ... nothing helped!
Any idea what else might be causing these clicks and pops?
Here is a sample I recorded with my RME Babyface Pro - all the gains at 0, amplified by 24dB so it's easier to hear.
