Headphoneus Supremus
My amp is a Monoprice Monolith tube headphone amp using a single 6AS7G\6080 tube and a pair of 6N3P drivers. I really enjoy this amp and most tubes play nice in it but I do have an issue where one of my favorite tubes, a CEI 6080, will sound glorious and then make a sound like ffffffffffffff then a little crackling static sound then smooth out again. (I hope that description wasn't too technical.)
Anyone here know if this is related to the CEI tube itself, the driver tubes or the amp? A couple other tubes I have make noise as soon as headphones are plugged in but this CEI is dead quiet then the little static issue then back to silent. It can screw up an otherwise fantastic listening session...
