Try the GE in V1 and the JJ gold pin in V2 and see how that sounds. If that's cool, then try the 12BZ7 in V4...

Well... It looks like the amp just doesn't like that 12BZ7. V4 brings out the nice qualities described above, but it also has microphonics on all channels so it's just a no-go on that puppy.
Yup. The shield I had on my amp actually fit over the 12BZ7... Whoda thunk it? So I used that rather than one you sent because it snapped in more securely.
I'll try your rubber band trick if my dampers don't come before I get another crack at it... But, the wife just came home after a day of baby-sitting so she's gonna put the kubosh on my noisy science project. I'll have to pick this up later. So walking away from it Here's How it sits:
V1:
Westinghouse
V2:
GE
V3:
GT
V4:
JJ (not the Gold Pin)
I think I'm gonna try the layout you listed you listed above next... The
GE in V1 and the
JJ Gold Pin in V2.
