That is a nice looking amp! I think its the exact amp I have. Your handling of the old socket hole and the new speaker terminals have inspired me. How did you get the output transformers to look so good? They look like they've been polished with a cotton wheel. Thanks for sharing that.

Hey Mike, got any pictures of your amp?

Thanks, thats what I suspected. A daisy chained 110v basically. Yes, its single ended 6BQ5s with the 5U4 tube. I'm guessing a 2 amp fuse? I'm hoping to use it with my Heresys.

History: Stopped at the thrift store today. What was I thinking? Oh well, I found an old '59 stereo Magnavox console, all tubes. Tag said it worked. Price was $6.49. So I brought it home, plugged it up and sure enough it kinda worked. Looks like two 6BQ5s for output tubes. I connected my MP3 player to the amps RCA type connectors and sure enough it sounded good. So I'm thinking how easy can this be for an amp pull. The 120v plug goes straight in the amp so I'm thinking I can just unplug the wiring harness to the rest of the console and all will be good, WRONG. It won't do squat with that harness disconneced much to my disappointment. What to do next?

Aren't those the ones that have a coax speaker and the back corners are cut down? A pair of those would be a real bargan if indeed they sound as good as Cornwalls. I'm kinda skeptical.
