I bought a HRD and just received it -- during shipping the speaker magnet shifted off the cone so I slipped it back into place. One of the grove tubes (6l6) was busted so bought two new GTs. Ok so now no volume really -- some strange noises, cuts out from time to time, and no reverb. A real mess. My first question is: could some/most/any of this be related to the speaker magnet issue? Second question is -- any ideas?

If it's under warranty, return/replace.

Ya second that.
The magnet on a speaker is not normally movable, not without damaging the voice coil and wiring.
It must have taken one or more fairly big hits to do that kind of damage.

Return, you shouldnt even have replaced the tubes. But it is a shame though.
