Hi all, was wondering if anyone would happen to know what amplifier this might happen to be as I don't believe I have ever seen one before, appears to be 2- 6LQ6 driving 5-24LQ6 configuration. Has a date on the inside of the unit as 1972 . Thanks

Were they really made that crude? I mean, the switch and lamp on the front as well as the soldering looks like it was made in someone's basement, complete with knobs from Radio Shack. Then again.....it probably was.
I would think that is a possibility Nomad but Most Maco I have had ran their maco 2057 or 8950 tubes , this one has 2 6lq6 driving 5 24LQ6 ???
Danzig, tube conversions are common and easy enough, perhaps that's what someone did, because that's definitely a Maco deck.
The 2057 and 8950 became expensive, so they strung the 5 24LQ6 tubes across the mains and used two 6Lq6 in series on the 12 volt heater.
Bam, cheaper tube replacement.

See if this doesn't look familiar. It's our rescue routine for the 300.
