I think you mean its cathode biased.Thats some setup..What B+ voltage are you running on the 5881s? Typically class AB has some headroom where you shouldnt get a real hard clip as you speak of if its designed right.
Also why dont you eliminate the IT for a test and RC couple it and see what happens.This circuit you describe is typical on a lot of SET amps with the IT and a high transconductance driver.
One more question..Are you using this as a guitar amp? Its sounds like you were referring to one speaker and the 5881 is a popular guitar amp tube.
