RE: Maybe that third one is just for show?

Yes, prior to the subwoofer loud thump they all glowed the same, very bright compared to the 6922s I had in.
The 6nips are very new with less than fifty hours on them. It has no light, but feels hot like the others. So it must be working but something caused the glow to turn off, and I feel ninty percent it had something to do with the sub.

I emailed the dealer, he thinks the sub could have turned on by some radio interference or surge, and maybe it backfeed to the tube. He thinks the tube is still good if it plays and is hot.
I asked about a schematic, he says they don't give it out.

I have a new set of Russian 6nips coming tomorrow, so I will remove these Chinese ones and see if my Eico can test them.
