Speaker is not plugged in?

On a serious note:

1. Have you checked the speaker, the field coil of it, and the voice coil (conveniently the xfmr is not on the speaker so no unsoldering necessary)
2. The connector at the speaker?
3. The output xfmr?

Have you checked the tubes and their connections ?
Touching the 7C8 grid?

I mean.....there is not much.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
