You could fit a mains transformer from a Linear Conchord, the 30W version of your amp. Your HT would then be around 430V instead of the 500V of the L50 and the output only a negligible 2dB lower.

The lowest cost approach might be to look out on eBay etc for a scrap Conchord, or the RSC A10 equivalent, with a working mains transformer. Probably cheaper than a rewind.
