The only reason I haven't yet is that they were already installed in the PR-5 by the dealer at my request, and the preamp is now in a shelf. It's 30 pounds and I use a wheelchair, so it'll have to wait until a friend comes over. My wife is awesome, and put it in the shelf and hooked it up patiently with my instructions, but she's just not up for disconnecting it, pulling it out, unscrewing the 10 cover screws and then reversing the process. I can't blame her! ;-)
But thanks so much for your advice. I will see if a friend can come over and look at the tubes and post what I find (and ask any remaining questions). I've wanted to adjust the cartridge loading separately, so planned on pulling it anyway.
