Mesa TC tube question

I have a tc-50 combo and I was playing through it last night and noticed what seemed like one of the tubes rattling, anyone ever heard of this before or have any ideas of what it could be?

Any help is appreciated
 
Tube rattling noises in combo amps is common as the sun rises in the east. Speaker vibration causes this. You can get tubes that don't make as much noise, but eventually they will, especially in high gain amps. Short plate tubes are the best and silicone ring dampers can help to some degree.
