Back in the 1960s I was given several heavy tube amplifier chassis. All of them worked after replacing a few tubes. After all these years, I still have them. They were very well made, The transformers were not shaped like most, but were in square cans with rounded corners.
Another unusual thing, was the three part filter capacitors were plug in, with an octal base (same as an octal tube). Back then, I had a little hum so I found a store that had identical replacements.
The tubes were all octal based. Four 6L6 outputs, Two 5U4 recifiers, and at least 4 more octal tubes. I believe at least one was a 6SN7 (something like that). I dont have them handy to look at right now....
Anyhow, they had awesome sound and were loud. The audio output transformers were huge.
However, there was no brand name or identification of any sort on them.
50 years later I am still trying to ID them...I think they were from jukeboxes. But that is just a guess....
I have tried to google different words but not found any matching pictures. I did note that the Rock-Ola chassis all seem to have those square transformers though. My guess is that they were made in the late
1940s or 1950s.Does anyone know of any website that has photos of antique jukebox chassis, or another means to ID them?
