You may be correct about the cause.
The tube amps are described as: a pair of tube monoblocks using the 6B4G tube in push pull configuration. The 6B4G is a 2A3 with a different base. These amps put out around 16-18 watts. Built on Magnavox console chassis with the 50’s/60’s Magnavox transformers. The parts are industrial but quite good quality. These were built in the 90s or early 2000s and were formerly owned by Charley Kittleson of Vacuum Tube Valley. Tubes are 6SL7, 6SN7, pair 6B4G, pair 5R4 per amp.
The other amps are Jeff Rowland 501 with separate power supplies. The external ps make the amps sound exponentially better, to my ear, than without.
