Thank you for the quick response!
No, I am not using a load on the output since not in the instructions I have (thought it was oddly missing for a tube amp). I am removing the 6FS5 for the first part of the setup, but not the 6EJ7 per the instructions I have.
It's quite possible the tubes have had it. My tube tester says they are okay, but my tube tester doesn't test them at the current necessary to be certain. I think many of the tubes I'm running are the original tubes (!), so running OTL's on electrostatics really does help. :)
I'll try the new tubes then replace the Zener diodes, if required. May take a couple days, so if any other ideas or comments, please let me know. I'll let you know how it goes.
Thanks again.
