Nice E.H. Scott Amplifier / Power Supply Chassis. Here is a description that I found on the internet that appears to match this item: It may be a late Philharmonic (or Phantom Deluxe) Amp/Power Supply Chassis. It is uncommon in respect to the finish on the power transformer and the plug layout for the speaker connections. “I have been told that chrome was in high demand immediately preceding WWII and in the later production years, the PTs were black in some models. If you look at the contours of the power transformer, you will see that it matches the more typical chrome counterparts. The interconnect sockets are rectangular instead of round and accept Jones plugs. This chassis is very similar to a Laureate but with the layout and tube compliment of a Philharmonic(or Phantom Deluxe). This chassis is set up for 5U4G rectifiers and a quad of 6L6G output tubes. Tubes are included what you see is what you get”. This particular amplifier appears to have been restored in recent years as it has a new power cord, new electrolytic caps on the bottom of the chassis with the (top) originals left in place (one has a broken phenolic mounting wafer) and a few new capacitors. The underside of the chassis is clean and the wiring looks very nice. The top of the chassis is poor to fair in my opinion, there is moderate pitting on the Chrome chassis, the filter chokes and the cover of the driver transformer look pretty good, please look at the pictures and judge for yourself. The person who we got the amplifier from left the radio chassis and case behind and when he went back for these items per my request, they were long gone. The tubes appear to be as follows: 2 each 5U4GB rectifiers and 4 each 6L6G (or equivalent) output tubes. I suspect this item is probably functional but I have no way to test it. Due to the age (70+ Years) of the item, the fact that I cannot test it and per eBay protocols, I must sell it for PARTS or REPAIRS and as USED, STRICTLY: AS-IS. I will package this item carefully in a sturdy box to insure that it arrives in the same physical condition as seen in the pictures. I will remove the 6 tubes and package them in another box and box them with the amplifier. This amplifier / power supply assembly is a fine example of American made high quality radio equipment and was hand built with the state of the art technology of its time and the finest American made parts that were available. This information is a best effort so BID ACCORDINGLY. The item is in poor - fair overall physical and cosmetic condition and is sold for PARTS or REPAIRS per eBay protocol and as USED, strictly AS-IS. The pictures form part of the description. I ship within 3 days of receipt of funds. Items will ship upon receipt of guaranteed funds. PayPal Will ONLY be accepted from users with a CONFIRMED ADDRESS * AND * the Item MUST ship to that SAME ADDRESS.
