RE: There is a difference between "self Biasing" and a robot.

"you really need to check the plate voltage and idle current in your amp before you damage those nice 6L6ga tubes you're using."

Fortunately, the tubes were cheap($36)in relative terms? They were probably $.75cents when new! And they aren't part of a "premium" batch.
For this excercise, based on published info and distributor adivice, no NOS tubes of significant value/performance were harmed.

As mentioned in original post, so far I do like(or getting used to)the somewhat "dry" presentation. Everything the KT77 does is there, except the dial is turned maybe a notch or two down.
