Hi, I would monitor the voltage on the control grid of the 50A6 pin 6. On 2 occasions on different sets I would see the control grid slowly go more positive after awhile and the sound would get weak and slightly distorted even though I had recapped it. Turned out the tube had gas or some issue even though it tested good. Make sure you replaced the C200 coupling cap on your set.
