No hate, I love my Vali 2, but that pic feels like you're driving your Ferrari through the Burger King drive through
Sometimes you gotta "have it your way."

It's not what you know, it's who you know. All vintage tubes. Tested and good. Sent from a friend. This will be fun.
Nice!
Now you need another friend to send you some tested /good 1950-60's NOS 6DJ8 / 6922 / 7308's!!!!!!!!!!!
The heater voltage is within Vali2's spec. However, is there anything else that I am missing, but could damage the amplifier? cheers
Now my Schiit Vali 2 catches cellular signal and preduces static noises when it does. I started to notice it in the last 48 hours. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

Are you sure its coming from the Vali2 and not an interconnect or headphone cable? How close is the phone when you are noticing this noise? Is the static consistent meaning one frequency like from the phone antenna or is is random noise and intermittent? These answers might help to narrow it down.
If you haven't already done it, I would suggest performing a swap of all cables, one at a time, just to be sure the static is coming from the vali and not a bad connector or something. If it is the vali they have a 5 year warranty so I am sure you wouldn't have a problem getting a replacement at no cost.
Not on my Vali 2, no, but on my old Perreaux amp, yes. It caught all sorts of interference at the end of it's life. Mostly it was indistinguishable noise, but if I pulled the power cable and turned the volume pot all the way up I could distinguish broadcast radio (at least, that's what I though it was) with no cables plugged into it at all. Swapped in my wife's magni with all the same cables, no problem at all.
Yeah, I'm sure. My first guess was cable problem. I tried to swap it, unplug other cables or computer's power cable. But the problem wasn't solved. And then I notice that the noise is louder if my phone's closer to the amp. So I move my phone closer and farther from the Vali 2 when it's transmitting signal.. And yep, that's that. Another proof is I can remove the noise anytime by setting my phone on airplane mode.
Uh oh. Yeah I heard once that amplifier could become a radio.. I remember my friend built his own guitar amplifier and whenever we plug a guitar and turned the volume all the way up, we can hear radio broadcasts. It's funny though, the guitar was its antenne.
