I alway preform adjustments with (speaker) load.
Revels @ 6ohm and Silverlines @ 8 behaved differently,
At times will also use a multi-meter instead of
built-in meter . . . if in doubt.

I on ALs' (or perhaps Ralphs') recommendation
switched (while on - YES B+ too) and HOT swapped
with kitchen mitts to balance the (4 tube) halves
to point where meters reflect closer to (12 oclock)
positions. It really works for a stubborn tubes,
INVARIABLY there IS some freakish balance.

I struggled with this approach (initially), but
the AMPS ARE SOLID - they are OK with this.
I (at times) had to discard an offending tube
that skewed the measurements wildly . . .

I spoke with Ralph recently . . .
I believe that Ralph IS (now) out west for
a show - Rocky Mountain Audio Show (?name?)
