If the loudness of the 'pop' increases when the volume control id turned up then the problem has nothing to do with the power section and lies in the pre-amp. Possibly a failing tube or a leaky cap. 

Correct, it’s unrelated to the power amp (power tubes/valves, transformers, etc.)

Proper troubleshooting will narrow down the area responsible for the noise, then it can be appropriately repaired.
