Static noise from speakers

Hello,

Getting what sounds like static noise from my speakers. The weird thing about it is this happens when I am not playing any music with the volume turned just about all the way down. Problem comes and goes, minutes can go by between interval in which this noise occurs. Noise last for a few seconds and the noise level varies. Problem appears to occur once in a while when I play music, but not any where near as often.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Could it be interference with the power cords? I just set up a Belles power amp and a Magus pre amp and have static that seems to be in the pre amp. I'm wondering if I might have bad cables because the units worked fine when I previewed them. With the Magus there is an external power source that needs to be 3 feet away from everything or it causes interference. I'm wondering if I have all the components isolated enough.

Might be another issue besides tubes anyway.

Well I needed a new tube too. So my thought about separation of components was not the issue.

I have the same problem but my amp is solid state. Any ideas? could it be a grounding issue? Should I try cleaning the contacts? Is it a bad contact?
