Popping noise when muting pream


I have a VTL preamp hooked up to a sonic frontiers sfs 50 amp using all nordost cables. I noticed a hum in the right channel and when I mute the preamp it pops.
I've checked all the tubes and they are seated fine, I also checked my cables and they are also seated.
My equipment is plugged into a Panamax power conditioner. Suggestions?

I had that problem twice with different BAT preamps, both times it turned out to be a leaky capacitor. It sounds like your preamp needs some professional service.
