Golden Tube Audio SE-40 bias problem


I own a Golden Tube SEP-1 and a SE-40. I can properly bias tubes V3 and V6, but the others stay in the vicinity of 100-150mv. I've tried tube swapping and new tubes. Neither action makes any difference. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

A service manual which fully explains how to bias the SE-40 with diagrams and pictures is available on the Golden Tube forum at Yahoo groups.

It's slightly tricky given it's a common cathode amp the bias of one tube affect the others. Biasing must be done in a specific sequence.
