got it!!!

so i'm in there putting some safety plugs in and it occurs to me (for some reason) to look at the tubes in my amp... one of the drivers is "spotting" on top. so i shut everything down, replaced the tube with a fresh vt-231 and voila! the sound stage is back, the bass has returned and i have all the resolution i was looking for in the first place! it would appear that i've been the victim of an odd coincidence? i'm not sure how everything can be fine, then when i unplug it all, replace the receptacle and turn it all back on, one tube goes south, but that would appear to be the case.

so, i'll apologize if i've wasted anyone’s time, thank all who responded, continue to implement kenster's tweek ideas and try to hold my ever so slightly embarrassed head up.
