Static on highs


I am still learning the ropes, so please bare with me. My current (entry)set-up is a project debut with a tube box and a jolida 202a. While listening to my Brubek I've noticed a static on some highs, especially the piano - they seem like they are slightly going through a distortion pedal. I looked at the record and it seems like new. Is there something I am missing?

thanks in advance!

Here's something that might not have been considered: a ground issue somewhere. I know, it sounds unlikely. But I had the same symptoms with a Rel sub connected to an SET amp which ended up having a mismatch in impedance/ground. Investigate it. You have nothing to loose.
