I hear a random low booming noise .

I have velleman tube amp and Audible Illusions tube preamp.
There is a low level boom that comes from speakers randomally. Is this a proximaty issue (amp to close to preamp, wire or speakers etc) or is it inherent in this equipment?

Are you playing the 1812 Overture when this happens?

Could you please be more descriptive? Does it boom when playing music or just sitting there? If with music, how loud. What do you mean by random?

Could you describe the boom? I've never heard that term used to describe an audio problem.

If it only happens while playing music at low volumes my first suspect would be the source. Do you have more than one source to try? Maybe a portable CD player you could hook up to see if it does it too?
