1st full tube amp Oldchen EL34


Picked this up inexpensively to try on my Klipsch Quartets or Chorus 1s. Do not know much about vacuum tubes. I have recapped many ss amps but this is foreign to me. Seeking any and all advice on various nuances. 
 

I have a significant amount of silver coated copper wire encased in PTFE, was considering replacing the wiring. Have not opened it up yet so more to come based on what I find. Thanks for any feedback.

Made in China junk! You should have bought a Dynaco ST70 instead. They are the hot rods of tube amps! Easy to work on, easy to mod. I have two, one with a new input board, one with a full-on mod (custom chassis, new input stage and external power supply with beefed-up power trans).
