I built my SSE in April and just had to replace my JJ GZ34 tube after less than 8 months of use. Amp started making screeching and popping noises shortly after power on. I noticed some flashes (arcing?) inside the GZ34. Replaced with a new GZ34 and all is good again. I suspect it's just a crappy tube but wondering if this is normal or if somethings wrong with my SSE or the way I've set it up.

How big is the first capacitor after the rectifier?
