It's too bad you lost a tube.
Don't run the amp with just one good tube on that side. It's hard on the output transformer and the other tube might get itself in a "run away" condition.
I have no idea why you can't hear any difference between the two channels.
You should be able to. The channel with only one good tube will have much less power and much higher distortion.
The DC of the one tube is not being counteracted by the DC of the other tube and that leaves the output transformer in saturation.
