hello i have problem with my crack.
i plug my hd800 and i hear only in left side, right channel no sound.
i been in friend house to check the hd800 with other amp to see if they are working fine. hd800 work with both sides.
i plugged other cheap headphone again only left side work.
i replaced big tube in crack from stock tube to SYLVANIA TUBE 6080WA but still no sound from right side.

here is my voltages check:

You have a bad solder joint somewhere in the signal path. Check your resistances again, you may find a discrepancy. It is also usually more expedient to simply resolder everything than try to figure out where the fault is.

Do both halves of your 12AU7 glow?

Do both LED's on the 9 pin socket glow?

Please refrain from plugging in your headphones till your voltage at terminal 1 is resolved.
