I have been having problems with channel 1 on my Einstein lately. Not sure what it is but it sounds terrible. With my guitar turned down all the way not messing with the knobs its been making a lot of loud popping noises and hum sometimes crackling noises. It doesn't sound good at all and I'm hoping its not a BIG issue. I am running my amp through a power converter because I bought it used from spain and live in the US. Not sure if that would have anything to do with it. I recently put new tubes in and rebiased it to about 68ma. This is the correct bias setting for a set of E34L's right? I'm not sure if it needs to be set different since it's still running 230v through a converter. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
 
I sent an email to the US tech support.

Best,
Peter
 
Hello,

What is going on with ch2 ? All 100% ok or some noises as well?

How old are the pre amp tubes? If you don't know they definitely need to be replaced.

Where are you located?

Thanks,

Thank you Peter. I just sent you an email Jens thanks for the quick reply. You people at Diezel don't mess around haha.
 
I've had crackling on channel 1 on the Einstein as well and changing the pre-amp tubes did the trick for me.
