HI, first post from an electronics newby. Pardon my ignorance if this doesn't make any sense.
I've got a Award Session Bluesbaby 22 that I absolutely love, I'd love to try to build a less powerful version of it sometime. I've also got a Yamaha G50 112ii, G100-110ii and B100-115. I've got my share of solid state amps that all sound wonderful.
In an effort to compare a tube amp, I purchased a Nace M2-7R which is a 7 watt amp with a 12AX7 preamp tube and a 5881 power tube. It has a Accutronics Belton reverb module in it as well. The problem that I have with the Nace amp is that the reverb has a pronounced hiss that gets louder as you increase the reverb pot. It is the same regardless of the volume, treble or bass pot position. It's quite loud and can be easily heard over the amp at medium to low volume. Is this normal for a reverb module or is there something I should be looking for to correct it?
Thank you in advance.
