Currently I've got a pair of Von VR-1's driven by a Sophia EL-34 tube amp. This is my first experience with tubes. I've been running this setup for about a month now and have been immensely enjoying it. Lately, however, I've been noticing that during warmup when no music is playing, I can hear a crackling/static noise coming from my speakers. Nothing terribly loud, but definitely a noticeable crackling/static noise. It definitely seems like it happens most during the warmup of tubes, but it could be happening later on too, I'm just not sure. Is this is a bad sign? Everything still sounds superb, so I hope this is just a natural tendency of tube warmup? Any ideas?
