RE: Error on Scott LK72b schematic

It's kind of silly what they did..They have a shared 3.3 ohm resistor running from pin 5 to ground on each pair of 7591s..The best thing to do is install a 10 ohm resistor from pin 5 to ground on each of the 7591 tubes.This is four 10 ohm resistors total..You set the balance by putting your meter on DC volts and putting the plus and minus leads of the meter across pin 5 of the two 7591 tubes in each channel..Adjust the balance until you get 0 vdc between the two.. You then remove one of the leads to put it to ground and set the bias for .32 to .35vdc and you should be fine.Recheck the bias and touch up if necessary.A good warmup is a plus.
