    2553 tube bias question

    I bought a 2553 recently and I noticed that one of the power tubes glows hotter than the other one. My question is...can anyone supply a brief tutorial on tube bias for this amp? I was hoping to find something on youtube but no luck.

    Which to buy: JCM 800 2205 or a JCM 2000 DSL
