RE: Completely different problem now

I might of pointed out int he other forum that I suspected that you had a bad current hogging tube to begin with that was taking loading down the B+ and secondarily impacted the cap.. I would also check my diodes . You ruled out your panels ( less likely and the transformer)

New caps etc won't hurt - but you will not know the original problem.

If you don't want to assemble a fancy load -- three lengths of silicone test probe wire with banana plugs will get you back to the panels easy enough and temporary table with your amp on it for observation.

If your other amps tubes work.. use those and go from there-- that's what I would do at this point-- Good Luck!
