Very amusing. I had a similar (scaled down) experience with an SACD that I thought was faulty until I figured out the "noise" was the creaking floorboards in the old church in which a piece had been recorded--during intense moments, the orchestra would cause their chairs to shift slightly and the miking was so close it picked up the creaking floor.
As for the MBL setup, I've heard a few at the Montreal audio show over the years. Always sound great (and always way out of my price range).- Bottom

What SACD is that?! Sounds like I need to hear it!
I know I had it with Melody Gardot's - The Absence (Track 3 - So Long)... in there is a two clicking sounds (one from the left speaker, the other from the right) that happens throughout the song. The first time I heard the disc, I was busy and just wanted to hear it, so I put it on and turned it up and was wondering around the house listening. I came across the track and ended up re-playing it thinking it was fake analog clicks and pops or I also thought the CD hadn't been pressed correctly and there was some issue. I remember I looked at the disc then sat down and listened to it. IT was then that I realized the left speaker (I think it is) has someone flicking their check making a hollow popping sound. The right (or other speaker) has nails clicking on something hard, like granite or glass or something.... and if you don't have a good revealing system, it sound like clicks and pops in the song which is sort of annoying.
It was then, when I figured out what it was (which Melody confirmed it on her fb/twitter) after a bunch of people commented on the new disc with the same thing... that I had the exact same smile as the guy at the concert... I realized what I was able to resolve and other could not! ha ha!Digital Audio makes me Happy.
