Hi all,

Some weeks ago I got this new baby... it is an amplifier that I got from an "old radio console" that was damaged very badly. I added some pics, it uses the following tubes 1-EL84, 1-EZ80 and 1-EBC81 as you cna see this amplifier already have the transformer and IN and OUT. Capacitors looks good not damaged nor leaks, Do you recommend me to replace them ? 

I want to build a stereo amplifier with this, I already have 2-EL84, 1-EZ80 but I need one ECB81.

I am not sure if I can use the same transformer that I already have. I am not looking for a strong amplifier just want to hear the nice sound of music thru tubes.

Thanks for your comments and advices.
