I have a similar problem with an old 4 tube 811 amp, but I didn't need it so
I shelf'ed it. I guess I'll take a look into that problem again myself. I
don't have anything to test tubes, but I do have some spares to test with
that I hopefully moved from the other house, otherwise they are snowed in
until May. I don't think it is a tube for me though.
Yea, that was no help for you... Not even sure why I replied now... :)
