Just a few words as I have to run.
517V is way too high for the anode. The B+ power supply should only be putting out 435V +/-. You'll want to check your power transformer connections first before looking elsewhere. You can email or call Brian Smith for help. (click on "HOME" at top of Audio Note Kits Forum page)
Also you should have test speakers or 8 ohm dummy loads connected to the speaker terminals whenever the kit1 is powered up with tubes installed.
