Help needed

Just finished assembling and testing tested my Stereomour. The only voltage which seems out of range is from pin B-1 to OA pad. I get 172v instead of 230v. Should I be worried ? Everything else checks out just fine.
Many thanks in advance.

Hello Guy,
The 172V indicates an exceptionally strong 12AT7, which is a great thing!
As that tube ages, you will notice that this voltage creeps up steadily.
Enjoy the amp!

Thank you very much much. I find this kit building addiction so relaxing in my retirement.
