Not really surprising to me. The Sherwood is a really good amp. My guess is that it may well be pretty much stock. If you rebuild it then it will be considerably better. The power supply will be much better and the bass will be tighter. Also, your Sherwood may not be biased optimally. It may well be running fine, but if the tubes are running a little cool or not well balanced then it won't sound its best. If you run a good quality tube amp with a set of speakers that it can drive easily it will sound very alive and correct. Of course the more money you pay the better the power supply and iron and the more detail you will hear. The Sherwoods have great iron and very good circuits. Yours may well be safe to use, but if the power and bias supplies are original then you can make it sound much better....
