So I went ahead and performed all of the steps for alignment that I could with no change.  The voltages at the 6AQ5 tube pins ( V9 and V10) are spot on. There are some issues with the 12BH7 final tube values though. Here are the numbers for it. The first number is the value in the Sam's. The second value is what I have.


12BH7

Pin 1 180vdc : 145vdc

Pin 2 -18vdc : +10vdc

Pin 3 15vdc : 9vdc

Pin 6 13vdc : 14vdc

Pin 7 160vdc : 166vdc

Pin 8 180vdc : 200vdc


I'm not sure if this is important or irrelevant to my issue. Thanks!
