Ordered a pair of RCA 5692 tubes for my Schiit Freya that test close to NOS (according to seller's test results).
One of them is static. Sometimes intermittent. I've tried cleaning pins and letting it burn in for a few hours. Problem decreases when it is hot, but is still intermittent, and is back full force when tube is cold.
If I swap L/R channels, problem migrates channels. Is there a common cause of this in tubes, or is the tube just bad?
