I have the full factory service manual for my Ampex console unit. As soon as I can get it scanned  I'll forward it.

I also replaced the original 6973 tubes with 6GC5's. This required that the original power supply voltage doubler be converted to a full wave bridge. This slightly lowered the output power but cleaned the sound up incredibly. It also has extended the tube life 10 times.

Those changes are noted in the schematic
