6505 is a Tube amp. So you should be turning the standby off before turning the amp off. It helps with tube and speakers life. If the amp is over 20 years. It is probably time to change filter capacitors.
@@The_Absurdistt Filter capacitors is my guess. They usually last about 10-15 years and then start to degrade. The popping is a surge of electricity as the caps are discharging. There are two HUGE ones, but I would not do it yourself. They can still hold a charge and kill you if you are not careful. I am working on a vid right now on replacing filter caps, but there are many vids already online. I hope it helps.
@@rsaldana1980 Thank you for the feedback. I agree, the inside of amplifiers can be dangerous and "potentially" deadly... I have experience with switching type power supplies but never delved into valve style anplifiers. I'm aware of the dangers but just have never had to troubleshoot a valve amp until recently. When you make the video on cap replacement could you provide a source for replacements? Many thanks for you efforts and sharing of knowledge.
I have a Caver power amp .. once in a while during listening to the music it produced a large popping sound through the speaker.. is it the same problem as you are fixing above .. my power amp is not a tube one.. Thanks

Thanks for the vid. My Peavey 6505+ pops when I turn it on or off. Any suggestions? Thanks.

@@rsaldana1980 Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I always put the amp in standby before turning it on or off... it still pops.

That is a different problem. Probably the caps or something loose inside. Does it have a reverb?
Is it popping while you play or when you turn it off?
It was popping even with no guitar plugged in, I replaced the tubes on it. Fixed the problem. Customer was happy. 😎
