Anyone know what these are? Looks like two of whatever they are...

The "tuners" are AM12 table top radios.

The others look like mono integrated amps (amp/mixer), and to left is ???

Edit: I was far too hasty on the AM12... I found an image with that discription, but further research reveals, it is not an AM-12

I think those things are the metal lids?

I am searching Radio Museum under 1954-1960 and I am coming up with nothing.

FWIW... I'd blindly shell out 2-3 hundo for them.

The Tuners have to be in the CR-717 or CR-718 maybe CR-724 area. 1956ish give or take a year or two.

Seller says the amps take 6V6 and I think hes saying they take six each, with 12Ax7s. He seems to think the amps are different models, but they look identical. It's the tuners that look different to me?

Anyway, these worth a $125 and a two-hour drive? Seller says they haven't been powered up in 20 years.... :/

Tough call, that drive would probably make it a deal breaker at that price imo

For the whole lot (6 pieces)... heck yeah! It looks like two amps, two preamps and two tuners...?
You must do it just to find out the model numbers... These are either really rare birds, or excellent homemade cases. During this era, Magnavox made pretty decent stuff.
Yes drive!
Yes spend a buck and a quarter!
And post more picks when you get them home.

Six 6v6 in push pull could produce north of 25 watts.... very respectable!

You are already on your way...

It isn't just two tuners...

-And you're right, 02county, they are different tuners.

 

[kirkendoll]

No but if they were close I would look at them for him

Kirkendoll, if I ever get this back to West Little Rock, mi casa es su casa.

look like very rare Magnavox pieces to me.....go get them!

The covered pieces could be the speakers for the top Radio.....

I believe Magnavox did make a stand alone Receiver like that, with speakers.

Did you get them yet?

Forgive the pestering... but these things really have my eye-brows raised and my heart racing.... I know, I'm an audio nerd.

The seller sent a few more photos of the amps - they are indeed different models but do basically look like maggy 6v6 mono amps. Could be a lot of models - 142, 138?

The odd thing is the packaging. I figured they were home made but I'm guessing these are factory. Gonna get them today if the weather holds

Those amps aren't worth a whole lot, just FYI. Not sure what the value is in their current setup, but the mono amps by themselves are not very valuable.
