Hello! My friend found this old Magnavox console in her grandparents garage…Looks like there are some Western Electric Tubes in there and maybe the circuit is stereo?
Anyone have any idea what this is and if it’s worth restoring?
Console amps can be interesting to work on, but the real value is what you learn IMO. A lot of times they don’t have a ton value standalone. I’m not familiar with this model, but it looks like the pre-amp controls are external. You may or may not be able to run the amp with out the preamp connected.
Thank you! Not sure my friend wants to go that deep down the rabbit hole on this one but those big tubes and transformer sure did look alluring!!! Another day, another project…
