Problems with Siemens CCa 6922 tubes?


I have used three different sets of Siemens CCa tubes in my amplifier, and all have started to fizzle, crackle and/or pop within a few weeks. Just curious if others have had this problem? My dilemma is that I LOVE the sound of these tubes, and everything else I've tried in this amp (Amperex, Ediswan, Siemens non-CCa, Sovtek, and a couple others) does not sound nearly as good.

Thanks for your feedback and/or suggestions for alternative tubes.

Gads,I have 2 pair of these CCa's; bought a couple of years ago and have never used/tested them--for my CAT3 phono section. I also have them in my First Sound line stage.---(You know a pre for each foot.)
