So I ordered a new set, but I also ordered a new Innuos streamer, Qutest, and some iso feet.

Once I installed everything and started listening again, I noticed that the crackling was gone.

I have no idea what happened, but I wonder when I disconnected the speaker and reconnected it solved the issue.

I also ran the amp for about 16 hours and wondered if the tube needed good heating. Maybe consider giving this a try.

I forgot to mention that in the situation, I totally disconnected the entire system and moved it. So I wonder if what I was experienced was a grounding issue.
