Picture 2 is the back of picture 1...you will note the transformer array almost tight with the magnet on the bottom speaker....this is the Regency Symphony, I'm guessing its newer than yours as it has the FM unit incorporated into the tuner chassis and that was there progression the earlier post-war models having FM tuner as an add on which you have and I have as well in my Belvedere pictured in #3...this is 6L6 powered built into the tuner....

Believe me both these set were in terrible shape...but are durable and can withstand a good cleaning pretty well.

Two 'new' sets of electronics to make one set for the Magnavox Windsor Imperial that is missing its original gear. Rains it pours...search for years for them within a couple weeks two sets appeared...one with the original TV for the upper unit of the Imperial...also shots of my Magnavox Windsor, Regency Symphony and Belvedere...all from '47-'49. I use them for the sound streaming from computer, TV, Roku, AppleTV as mono blocks...
