Grundig Radio help

I am fixing a grundig console radio for someone. They brought the radio portion to me leaving behind the console. Was having trouble tuning and needed lots of work to get the tuning dials and strings working. Also replaced the rectifier and can cap as the old one was leaking. Was not sure of speaker connections, but got some sound so figured it was all good. Drove a half hour to hook it up in the console.Powers up fine, tuning eye is nice and bright. We can tune into a strong station but the sound is horribly distorted out of both channels. Almost like you are hearing half of the sound or it is clipping very early. It is as if you hear the quiet portions, but as soon as their is sound, it clips. We swapped around the tubes with others he had, but got the same thing. You could just make out what song it was, but barely. So I am going through the tubes tonight and testing them on my Hickok 6000. Some are not listed. Anyone have a current settings chart for one?
Trying to test
EF89/6FC7
EL95/6DL5
EABC80/6AK8
ECH81/6AJ8

Thanks, John
