Thats sounds like a common grounding or filter cap problem..If they are using circuit boards they might have a solder connection thats needs resoldering..OTL amps are some of the best sounding I have ever heard but they do have problems with tube sockets and arcing..You may have a bad solder connection is all.My acoustat servo amps and my futtermans always used to have problems with resistors and tube sockets failing.If one of the grounds has a bad solder joint on one of the filtering sections,thats a good place to start.I dont think its major and those are fine amps.
