An Experiment

So I switched V21 and V22 following a suggestion by one of the AudioKarma guys. Last night the 6П14П tube which developed a red plate was in the V22 position.

I reconnected a pair of speakers, plugged the TA-600 into my Variac and brought it up to 115 volts again.

Result:

The red plate followed the same 6П14П to the V21 position. However, tonight I was able to play it twice as long as last night, and when I saw red on the V21 plate, it was red in a small spot instead of the entire plate being a glowing red as it was last night.

I had the lights out at my workbench, watching for any red plates, and as soon as I saw it I turned off the Variac.
