Good clarification. Thanks!
I've always avoided working on anything with vacuum tubes including CRT TVs. Reason why is, back in the '70s my Aunt and Uncle up in Connecticut came home to find my cousin dead on the living room floor. He had been working on a tube-type guitar amplifier. So I've been a bit wary ever since.
Although one of these can nail 'ya too, about 80V + and - on the finals... one of my Pioneer SPEC-4 power amplifiers that decided to let the smoke out one day.
