Running my axe into a synergy syn2 (tube), going into a fryette lxii power amp (tube). On all the gain modules i have for the synergy (basically swappable preamps if you're not familiar), once I bring the master to around noon on the fryette I'll hear some type of high pitch squeal (different depending on the preamp).
My axe patch is completely clean / true bypass. I even hear squeal with input and output block turned off and the output knob rolled all the way back. No squeal if I connect the axe in between the preamp and poweramp (where the fx loop would be).
I've tried various cables, swapped out the poweramp and preamp for an identical working pair (i have 2 of each). Swapped out the cabs.
Was even having the same problem when I used my FM3. I believe it may have to do with the output level of the axe/fm3. I tried it with outputs 3 and 4 of the axe which are supposed to be for 4cm. I've never quite understood this because as far as i have read, outs 3 and 4 are line level. Wouldn't the front of a tube amp only receive instrument level?
Anything you can help with is very appreciated. Thank you!
