You changed only ONE power tube? Did you Bias afterward? You should never change just one Power Tube, as they are matched in pairs/quads, and this is important to keep you from putting extra stress on one or running one completely cold. Generally, if you change one PT, you change them all, but you definitely change at least one pair of them. (Obiously, if your amp runs on two power tubes, you replace all of them no matter what, but if it runs on 4, you can get away with only changing two on some amps, although I see no reason why you wouldn't just replace all of them)
