The chassis has a transformer, but it's a fairly small one. It does seem to push out a lot of sound, but definitely not a thumper like the RCA console. A couple sites warned about these having red, cardboard tube electrolytics that go bad. I didn't see any on mine. Mine appears to have more modern looking, blue electrolytic caps on the chassis.
No matter where you go, there you are.
