Hi all,
I've been using and enjoying my SE84UFO very much over the past two to three years that I have had it. Until very recently, I've usually listened to music with the volume knob at around 9 o'clock or 10 o'clock, rarely exceeding that level.
About two days ago, I turned up my system and started listening to music but noticed that the volume didn't seem correct. I had to turn it up to around 12 or 1 o'clock to get the same volume that I was used to. I took my preamp and other equipment out and only used my phone as my source. The volume level remains the same so it is not my other equipment.
I visually observed the tubes on my SE84UFO and they seem to be fine. So I'm really wondering what is going on? To my ears, once I turn up the volume to 12 or 1 o'clock it still sounds good but I'm just curious what's going on here.
Not sure if this is related, but I also noticed that there is no "popping" sound when I change the bias switch when listening to music.
Any suggestions would be most welcome!
Ben
