Marantz 2285B static noise and weak channel

Hello AKers ! :)

First of all, sorry for my poor English, i'm a french reader of this forum.

I have a problem with my beautiful Marantz 2285B, which has been completely recapped (except FM boards, main dual-core filter capacitors and the output transistors).

When I turn it on and after the relay kicks in, I hear a static noise in the left speaker. Then, this noise fades in 5 to 10 seconds.

The same channel on which the noise occurs has an output volume approximately 25% lower than the other channel...

After reading some threads here on AK, I noticed that if I connect an RCA from Pre-out L to Main-in R and Pre-out R to Main-in L, the noise goes to the other speaker, at the same time as the output volume issue.

Thank you in advance for your help. All ideas will be welcome.
And merry Christmas to everyone ! :)

Vincent
