   thank you very much. -forkinthesocket   
      
   Finally had a chance to get back, it's been quite a week of keeping FM radio   
   working in my area (my current day-job)   
      
   You will be pleased to know that I have the same Tannoy speakers as you (but   
   mine are clean!) Funny story as to how I got them, a certain TV station I used   
   to work for got a package deal for a monitoring station, and it included these   
   Tannoy speakers.    
   They would not fit in the space alloted, so I traded them for a set of Optimus   
   bookshelf speakers (the smallest they made) and we were both lived happily   
   ever after...   
      
   So my line voltage is 120.6 VAC with the same meter.. I put the amp on a   
   variac and brought the line voltage to 110VAC and got close to the same   
   measurements as you did. Does the primary transformer have voltage taps?? I   
   didn't really look hard.    
      
   I hope I am not destroying anything by continuing on such high voltages..   
   power tubes are disposable, they are not anything special, but I don't want to   
   cook the amp or the preamp tubes.
