Re: What would make one output tube go bright cherry red!! too much drama

The X-101-C is a cathode biased amp...and the RCA tube manual states that the 7591 maximum grid-1 resistance for cathode biased operation is 1 megaohm vs .3 megaohm for fixed biased operation.

Another thing to check for is rather simple, a dirty or defective tube socket.
