Re: 6bq5 triode configuration? (Longer and longer)

I was trying to run the Eico HF-86 triode (I rewired it with 100ohm resistors between pin #7 & #9) output. The Pilot appears to be a far more complicated circuit with little room to work on. The eico offered only a hum through the right speaker when I disconected the jumper and resistor from the filter CAN capacitor and conncted 100ohm resistors between pins #7 & #9 on all 6bq5s.
I am going to experiment wih reducing the feedback on the HF-86. I have been able to locate the 33k resistors comming off of the 32 ohm speaker taps. Do I also need to change the value of the capacitors that you mentioned running in parallel with the feedback resistors?
