I have 2 pics of this amp and don't know anything about it. If it does work what is it worth? EDIT: I have 3 more pics below now one is the same and the last one you can see inside a little bit.

What is this worth?

I found another forum and they were stating that they got it up to 1100 watts and then blew the house fuse and burned up some wires inside the walls, apparently in the 1940's when his house was built home wiring was a bit smaller in amperage.

Yep, that's a D&A T-600. Basically it was one of the final versions of the Phantom. As D&A amps go they are somewhat of a rarity but as to what it's worth - well, something is worth what another person will pay for it.
It looks to be in good physical condition so that's a plus but the question is how well does it work? What's the tube complement? Probably has 10 6LQ6s in it and it may or may not have a keying tube.
D&A were well known for building amps with whatever parts they could get a lot of on any given day. It's why you never see an official schematic or service manual for them.
If the thing works well, hasn't been golden screwdrivered to death and is as clean inside as out, I'd say to the right person it should bring somewhere between $350-$475 depending on how strong the tubes are and how much the buyer wants it.
Maybe you will get lucky and find a hardcore D&A collector who needs this model to complete a collection!

Thank you Atlasta I am trying to figure out if I want to buy it but we are 3000 miles apart. It ways 40lbs and they do not understand what they have their. They claim it came from a So Cal radio station 106.7 KROQ I remember it well and I knew a few of the disk jockeys years back but I just don't get the connection between that and an FM broadcast station? Also shipping could be the end for that amp.
