Next definitely for sure possibility please.
Well that capacitor though is where my voltages to the audio output circuit are getting lost though for sure because I measured the B+ voltage from the terminal that C49 ties to and goes to ground and I have B+ voltage there going to ground but then when I measure from that point to the other side of C50 the 10,000 pF ceramic disc cap there's no voltage there (it's -20V or so) and that is supposed to supply the voltages to pins 5 and 6 of the 6AQ5 tube, and yes I did replace C50 with a new capacitor finally and that didn't change the voltage readings any.
