Altec Amplifier ; What do I have here??

[mf28]

Hello, My first post. I found a Altec mono tube amp and separate power supply using 2 6L6's. I think its a home brew per my inquiries over on the Audiokarma tube site. (pictures there). Anybody with info on this? Also, since I have to rebuild it. Whats the best use of the transformers? # TMQ-201 A. And TMQ-601. Keep the 6L6's. Or use a different tube? Couldn't find ANY info on them. Thanks....Mike

I was really hoping to get some info on this amplifier to help direct my restoration efforts. Perhaps a little more patients is required........Thanks....Mike

Custom build.

Maybe DIY, looks more like a government job to me.

Bowtie, thanks....Government job....yes maybe. Miss my access to a bridgeport mill!! Any one here have ANY info on those trafo's? Sorry, but I tried to post pic's here. Bought it and forgot about it a long time ago. Never plugged it in.

Spray contact cleaner into the tube socket
holes and run the amp up on a variac or
dim bulb tester.....

check B+ most likely around 400 V ,
6L6 cathode bias 28-32V .
