Alright, maybe someone can help me out..
the entire left channel seems to be behaving, the tube voltage sets, and the bias is within range. The right channel, not quiet. With a tube inserted, the tube bias range is from 16~19.8v (Main voltage set to 22v), while the DB bias starts at around 180mV, and climbs to about 1.3V, before I promptly disconnect it all. I have a feeling the output transistors may be damaged since the trimpots were 'maxed' in the wrong way for a bit when I first powered up.. I found a local place with the least recommended BD139/140s that I'll pick up tomorrow and see how that works for now... meanwhile, maybe someone can spot something else?
Thanks.

Thanks guys..
(the 3 wire braid is temporary, and the fuse blew so I bypassed
