Alight so here is my nightmare, I bought the little dot 1+ over a month ago,When I got it, the right channel didn't work at all. I had then tried switching tubes, same result, tried it from different sources, same result, tried different gain settings, same result. So I returned it and got a replacement.
I got my replacement today and it literally has the same issue as before except it's WORSE, The left channel doesn't work at all, plus, it has this ear wrenching white noise/static/hum coming from it very loudly with volume all the way down and/or no source hooked. I tried swapping tubes, same result, I then tried the Voshkod 6ZH1P-EV tubes in it, same thing. Then I realize that the left tube isn't even being powered at all! The pic shows that only one tube is even getting powered, the other one is dead cold. And Yes Ive tried cleaning and re-seating the tubes MANY TIMES.
