Put new tube in and played for several minutes than boom!! 6X5 overheated and turned blue again. I checked wire all seemed good. also looked for solder etc that may be shorting out 6X5. could it have anything to do with the tow electrolytic caps I replaced. both are !0s one rated for 450 volts the other 500. Can caps be my possible problem?
