I seem to have a vauge reccolection that the amps were sold as ex Admiralty and I agree they look like they could be ships equipment.
Not quite so robust as the B40 receiver but not far off. They are quite heavy.
The odd looking valve is all tat is left of a CV1863 rectifier valve which got smashed by accident, Ive replaced it with semiconductor diodes and a limiting resistor soldered into the valve base.
I need to buy another glass rectifier but have you seen the price lateley! I have seen some similar amplifiers sold by online auction going for hundreds of pounds.
