Help needed to ID 50's Zenith console

[Lee]

I came across this zenith on CL:
http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/fuo/5405765696.html

Are the amps in these Zeniths fairly reputable?

Hmm, I've seen that one before and I think it has the push/pull 6V6 stereo amp but I also think that specific amp needs the tuner/preamp because of some type of feedback built into the tuner. The amp can be made to sound good with a few added parts but if you want it to be stand alone, you will need some experience in electronics.

That experience I do not have
Thanks for the feedback. I will move on and look for an easier project.

That Zenith might have one of these.....a PP 6BQ5 stereo amp...
Smaller console might have a single ended amp?
Don't know about the design of it....
One of these came up near me....but I never got the time to go see it....
I would have bought it...if I had.

If the price is right...I'd get it.

borrowed these pics....

It is a 1959 model and has a push pull 6v6 or push pull 6BQ5 amp depending on the model number.
