Does it make the noise just after turning on the set say for 5 minutes or still making noise after 30 minutes? Like other have said cold solder joint sometimes using Deoxit on Q-tip clean all parts of tube sockets and base of all tubes. Dampness can also be a problem that will go away after about 30-45 minutes. David
