Yeah, I would follow Schiit's instructions to be safe, but know that I've never damaged a tube by rolling it when the amp was off, but plugged in. Also, I would def wait for the tubes to cool or at least the light to be off completely. The V2 is very dependable so I would assume the issue is with the tube or electronic interference.
Burn in of 3-5 hours and 2-3 on/off cycles should be enough to stabilize the tube from dropouts and static. I've only had this happen for a couple of my tubes so take my advice with a grain of salt![]()
So after doing some various swaps it seems the issue is only with the GE 6CG7 / 6FQ7 tubes. The JJ E88CC / 6922 Gold tubes are fine. I have those in with the Novosibirsk 6N6p / 6H6pi tubes. So far so good. I do wish they had a bit brighter glow. The JJ E88CC / 6922 Gold tubes have barely any glow to them. I'm still waiting on the Brimar CV455 tubes but the adapters arrived today.
