Fellows Ive got a noise problem on a tube amp that is stumping me. The amp notes have a grainy/fuzzy character when they trail off. When you hit a note, or chord with a strong impact the intial note is clean, but then you get a background grainy/fuzzy/trashy noise that comes in and out. It happens when the amp is set for lower or higher volume. Aside from this noise everyting else works fine, power, controls etc.
I thought this may be from the bias being to cold, but after biasing hotter the amp still makes this noise. So I replaced every tube, tried different speaker cabs, no change. No leaking DC on the coupling caps.
PS filter caps are good and new. The amp has a bias voltage doubler added.
Any ideas. It's probably something simple.
Thanks,
