tube rattle

the other night i was sitting close to my amp not playing very loud, just going over a few scales, when i heard this rattle. i wasnt sure what it was at first but i determined it was the tubes making all the noise. i had heard one or two other people say that it was a problem for them and i was wondering if there was anything i could do about this.

Sure it's the tubes? I have problems with my AD15/12 rattling, too, but I think the noise comes mainly from a loose tube retainer wire. I tried to bend it, but it didn't make it much better <img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

ok, i figured it out, the rectifier tube was loose and i just popped it back in there.
